Description

Monthou-sur-Cher (Loir-et-Cher)

Cuvette de polissage en haut à gauche. Certainement d'autres sous la végétation.

Polissoirs datant du néolithique (5 000 av J. C. 2500 av J. C.). Ils sont situés au bord du ruisseau des Anguilleuses, au lieu-dit "La Crémaillère".

Polishers Neolithic (5000 BC 2500 BC). They are located at the edge of the Anguilleuses stream, at a place called "The Crémaillère".


Le ruisseau des Anguilleuses doit son nom au grand nombre d'anguilles qui s'y trouvait au siècle dernier. Ce cours d'eau vient de Pontlevoy où il est appelé Trainefeuilles.

Les polissoirs sont des blocs de roches dures et abrasives, souvent du grès.

Les polissoirs portent des cuvettes ovales parfois rondes à fond très uni et des rainures anguleuses en forme d’U ou de V évasés , plus ou moins longues. Les uns n’ont que des rainures, d’autres que des cuvettes, les plus nombreux ont à la fois des cuvettes et des rainures. On remarque sur quelque-uns, des surfaces planes polies. Les rainures sont souvent parallèles entre elles, d’autres fois, elles sont réparties très irrégulièrement sur la surface de la roche, quelquefois elles se coupent … »

Les cuvettes, comme c'est le cas ici, étaient destinées au polissage des faces et du tranchant.
