摘要：
The analysis of phytoliths, pollen, charcoal and other macroremains was carried out in the neolithic shelter of "La Grande Rivoire", Vercors massif (French Alps). The results show the predominance of tree species, in the form of phytoliths, clustered pollen, stomata, small branches charcoal, needles, bark, buds... The practice of leaf fodder is already known in the alpine and circum-alpine area from archaeological and historical sources. The analyses of the neolithic dung levels of "La Grande Rivoire" illustrate the use of leafy and flowering tree branches as fodder. The results also suggest that some species were used for special purpose in relation with the tending of livestock (litter, dietary supplement, veterinary practices). (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd.
