La Colombière (English spelling)

Japanese: ラ・コロンビエール(英語表記)La Colombière
La Colombière (English spelling)
A late Paleolithic site in the Ain department in eastern France. During excavation work by P. Pissot of France and H. Movius of the United States, ten pebbles (approximately 10cm in diameter) with animal carvings were found. These pebbles often have multiple images of animals carved into them, with images of different animals such as horses, reindeer, and cows often overlapping, suggesting that they were used for drawing practice. Large quantities of these types of carved stones (or painted stones) are sometimes excavated from certain ruins, suggesting that there was a group or place at the time where they were produced intensively.

フランス東部,アンAin県にある後期旧石器時代の遺跡。フランスのピソP.PissotやアメリカのモビウスH.Moviusが発掘調査をおこない,動物を線刻した小石(直径10cm内外)を10個見いだした。これらの小石には,種々の動物が重複して刻まれ,馬,トナカイ,牛などの異種の動物像が重なっていることが多く,デッサンの練習に用いたとも考えられる。この種の線刻石(ないし彩色石)は特定の遺跡から大量に出土することがあり,当時これらを集中的に製作する集団ないし場所があったことを推察させる。
