Geoarchaeological research in the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg especially focused on two main valleys of the country: the Moselle valley (presence of several gravel-pits in the “Wintrange basin”), and the valley of its tributary the Alzette (located in the centre of the Luxembourg), where important road works recently occurred. Preventive archaeological investigations revealed in both areas evidence of human occupation since the Palaeolithic. This poster presents the main results of geoarchaeological research in these two areas, leading to a preliminary comparison between these two sedimentary areas.
