Abstract
At the sites of Monruz and Champréveyres highly diverse allochtonous siliceous raw materials were introduced sometimes from very distant regions (up to 200 km). Analysis of the composition of the lithic assemblages enables us to identify the form in which these materials arrived and to observe that some cores and tools were exported from the site. Other materials, such as jet, fossil shells and amber, are geolocatable and also demonstrate circulations over very long distances (over 200 km). While the flints suggest regions that were directly frequented by Magdalenian people and/or exchanges between human groups, the other materials were most likely obtained through exchanges of objects and/or persons. They attest to contacts beyond the territory directly occupied by the groups living at Monruz and Champréveyres.
