Synopsis

Les grottes pr�historiques de Gargas, dans la commune d'Aventignan dans les Hautes-Pyr�n�es, sont un site majeur dont nous sommes fiers. Sa d�coration pari�tale de pr�s de 250 mains peintes en n�gatif, date de plus de 27000 ans, l'ensemble des 150 gravures d'animaux ainsi que ses d�p�ts pal�ontologiques et arch�ologiques, font de Gargas un site de premier ordre dans le r�seau des grottes orn�es des Pyr�n�es. Nous voulons honorer, � la fois, ces premiers hommes que affirmaient ainsi leur pr�sence et leur g�nie, et F�lix R�gnault que, le 11 juin 1906, a d�couvert, presque par hasard, des mains peintes alors qu’il visitait cette grotte depuis tant d’annes ... Un si�cle plus tard et apr�s avoir r�alis� de nombreux travaux au sein de la grotte, une �quipe de chercheurs du Service r�gional de l’arch�ologie de Midi-Pyr�n�es poursuit les fouilles … Elles nous r�serveront, soyons en s�rs, d’autres surprises … Que ces myst�res bien conserv�s et un jour r�v�l�s nourrissent notre imaginaire et confortent la confiance de l’homme dans l’homme. Andr� Loula and Josette Durrieu The prehistoric caves of Gargas, in the commune of Aventignan in the Hautes-Pyrenees, are a major site of which we are proud. Its parietal decoration of nearly 250 hands painted in negative, dates more than 27000 years, all the 150 engravings of animals as well as its paleontological and archaeological deposits, make of Gargas a site of first order in the network of decorated caves of the Pyrenees. We wish to honor at the same time those first men who thus affirmed their presence and their genius, and Felix R�gnault who on June 11, 1906, discovered, almost by chance, painted hands while he visited this cave since so many years … A century later and after carrying out numerous works within the cave, a team of researchers from the Regional Archaeological Service of Midi-Pyrenees continues the excavations ...
