Lines of Descent d'Anthony K. Appiah : un regard oblique sur le panafricanisme

Sur les traces de l’auteur afro-américain W.E.B. Du Bois, le philosophe Anthony Kwame Appiah se préoccupe dans son Lines of Descent (2014) de l’articulation entre identité personnelle, nationalisme culturel et universel cosmopolitique, à la lumière du signifiant social de la race. Appiah se penche spécifiquement sur l’influence qu’a exercée la pensée allemande de la fin du 19e siècle sur le d��veloppement de la pensée de Du Bois. Dans la foulée de travaux antérieurs 1, il s’y intéresse à la question de l’identité raciale et à la place qu’elle occupe dans sa théorisation du panafricanisme. Après un survol biographique des auteurs abord��s, cette note de lecture s’intéressera à ces trois thèses fortes en les soumettant à quelques réflexions critiques.

Lithic economy and territory of Epipaleolithic hunter–gatherers in the Middle Tagus: The case of Pena d'Água (Portugal)

In Central Portugal (westernmost Eurasia) the transition from the traditional Pleistocene hunter–gatherer societies to the complex Mesolithic societies of the Holocene has been debated for decades. While some argue that these differences were a progressive phenomenon that started with the shift from the Pleistocene to the Holocene, others defend that the Late Pleistocene patterns were fairly similar to those of the Epipaleolithic and that the major shift was rapid, dramatic and triggered by the necessary adaptation to the 8.2 ka cal BP (8.09–8.25 ka cal BP) climatic event. The study of lithic raw material provenance might be useful for this discussion, since it has been suggested that the Magdalenian and Epipaleolithic populations from this region were collecting this resources within a close range territory, whereas the Mesolithic populations were acquiring them at longer distances. In this paper, we present the results from p-XRF, VP-SEM-EDS and μ-XRD analysis done on the Epipaleolithic lithic assemblage from Pena d'Água Rockshelter, and in some geological samples from secondary sources located ∼14 km from this site. This layer is of major relevance for this debate since it is dated from 8.19 ka cal BP. If the transition was gradual, it would be expected that this assemblage would show some traits of higher-complexity seen in the Mesolithic, namely of longer distance acquisition. However, our results indicate correspondence between the archaeological chert types and some of the geological sources. The differences seen between the archaeological specimens and geological samples are mostly present in traits that can be related with manufacture, handling and post-depositional phenomena. The results suggest that, in what concerns to the economy of abiotic resources, the Epipaleolithic populations living at the time of the dramatic 8.2 ka cal BP cold event, were performing a short range acquisition of lithic raw materials which reinforces the idea of continuity from the Late Pleistocene to the 8.2 ka cal BP event and an abrupt and dramatic shift soon after this phenomena.
