Two origins are identified, of which...Pétrequin, P ; Cassen, S ; Errera, M ; Pailler, Yves ; Pétrequin, A-M …

Disc-rings of Alpine rock in western Europe: typology, chronology, distribution and social significance
In France, disc-rings made from Alpine jades and from serpentinite circulated over very long distances, as far as the Channel coast and that of Brittany. The authors offer here a typo-chronological study of these and other stone bangles, according to the types of rock used, and consider their distribution and...Pétrequin, P ; Cassen, S ; Errera, M ; Pailler, Yves ; Prodéo, F …
