Le site gallo-romain et médiéval de Glatigny (Mer, Loir-et-Cher) / The gallo-roman and medieval site of Glatigny (Mer, Loir-et-Loir)

As a result of the construction of a building estate, an archeological site was located at Glatigny in the spring of 1982. Two areas of a hundred and fifty square meters were searched for rescue during the works, and lead to the discovery of prehistoric and protohistoric articles. The final Tene period has left only incomplete traces of a constructed site. From then, the site was permanently occupied, and the aboriginal establishment slowly changed into a gallo-roman villa that reached its best in the second century A.D. In the fourth century sheds were built, a type of construction to be seen later on, in the Merovingian and Carolingian periods. In the eleventh, twelfth and thirteenth centuries a lot of silos were dug out. Although this modest rural site is a good example of a continuous occupation, the narrow area searched on this occasion didn't allow an extensive restitution of the site.Suite à l'implantation d'un lotissement, un site archéologique est localisé au printemps 1982 à Glatigny. La surveillance des travaux et la fouille de sauvetage de deux secteurs de 150 m2 amènent à la découverte d'objets de la préhistoire et de la protohistoire. A partir de La Tène finale, qui a laissé la trace incomplète d'une construction, l'occupation devient permanente et l'établissement indigène se transforme peu à peu en une villa gallo-romaine qui connaîtra son apogée au IIe siècle. Au IVe siècle sont édifiées des cabanes, type de construction que l'on retrouvera aux périodes mérovingiennes et carolingiennes. Aux XIe-XIIe-XIIIe siècles sont aménagés de nombreux silos. Toutefois, bien que ce modeste site rural offre un remarquable exemple de continuité d'occupation, la faible surface fouillée ne permet pas une restitution complète de son histoire.Genty Pierre, Moireau Fabrice, Cabard Pierre, Girault Jean-Louis.

Amphibians in the diet of European Barn Owls

We present a review of the propensity to eat amphibians in the Barn Owl Tyto alba in Europe. Based on the analysis of 596 published studies reporting 3.32 million prey items identified in pellets, 17 869 amphibians (0.54%) were found. An analysis of 9036 amphibians identified to the species level showed that Barn Owls avoid consuming toxic species, and they are able to capture tree frogs (Hylidae) only rarely. The true frogs (Ranidae) are by far the most frequently captured amphibians followed by spadefoot toads (Pelobatidae) and Parsley frogs (Pelodytidae)
