Il progetto di ricerca oggetto del presente lavoro e stato intrapreso con l'obiettivo di approfondire le conoscenze sui modi di vita dei gruppi preistorici nel territorio del Mont Fallere (Saint-Pierre, Valle d'Aosta, Italia) e tracciare le principali tappe della storia ambientale olocenica dell'area. Si tratta di un lavoro a carattere multidisciplinare che mette in relazione dati archeologici e ambientali ottenuti tramite prospezioni territoriali, scavi archeologici, analisi dell'industria litica, datazioni radiocarboniche, carotaggi palinologici, analisi fisico-chimiche dei sedimenti, indagini geologiche e geomorfologiche. Lo studio evidenzia la frequentazione dell'area da parte dei gruppi di cacciatori-raccoglitori mesolitici, oltre all'attestazione delle prime forme di transumanza verticale a partire dal IV millennio a.C., durante l'eta del Rame. Attraverso un approccio diacronico, preceduto da un'accurata fase di progettazione e riflessione metodologica, si e cercato di mettere in evidenza l'evoluzione del rapporto uomo-ambiente in questo settore alpino durante la preistoria.

The aim of the research project here presented was to investigate prehistoric occupations in the Mont Fallere district (Saint-Pierre, Valle d'Aosta, Italy) and to reconstruct the main phases of the Holocene environmental history of the area. It is a multidisciplinary work that presents archaeological and environmental data obtained through surveys, archaeological excavations, lithic industry analyses, radiocarbon dates, palynological samplings, physical and chemical soil analyses, and geological and geomorphological studies. The research highlighted the fact that the area was settled by Mesolithic hunter-gatherer groups, but it also yielded evidence of the vertical transhumance practices that occurred during the Copper Age (4th millennium BC). By adopting a diachronic approach, preceded by a careful methodological reflection, the authors reconstruct the evolution of the relationship between human occupation and environmental evolution during prehistory for this alpine district.
