7 - Archaeology. French Prehistory. Provençal Neolithic. Possible previously unpublished Provençal Neolithic stele (menhir statue with a face and chevron patterns). Rough-hewn. Urgonian-type limestone slab. Max. length: 25 cm. Max. width: 19 cm. Max. thickness: 8 cm. Approx. 4.5 kg. Provenance: Contras Plain, Eygalières Road, Orgon (Bouches-du-Rhône, Durancian area). Private French collection. Discovered in the 1970s. On both sides, a distinct outline has been carved from the block, featuring a classic rectangular-subtriangular profile with a curved apex and a “rostrum”-shaped base. Traces of surface dressing on the main face. Shaped by scraping prior to the creation of the decorative outline. Distinct cup marks: one at the base with a partial radiating design reminiscent of the Venaissin-type stele at Rocher des Doms; two others possibly marking the eyes. On the side bands, a rough-hewn incised decoration of fine lines, sawtooth patterns, oblique hatching, triangles, and “fishbone”-style chevrons, reminiscent of Trets-type stelae. The slab can stand “on end” on its short side. The interpretation of this limestone slab from the Duranche area as a stele rough-cut is plausible but not certain. Possible reuse during the Roman period. 4th millennium B.C.? See the Provençal stelae at the Musée des Antiquités Nationales and the Musée Calvet.
