Abstract Preventive excavation in the ancient Forum Iulii city (Frejus, southern France) in 2013 revealed a housing block where a very well preserved charred wooden floor was discovered. It was laid in a house dating back to the first half of the 1st century AD and used as the floor of a room decorated with painted plaster. It was destroyed by fire around 70 AD. The ligneous species used for its construction (Aleppo pine, Scots pine, beech and fir) were characterized by anthracological analysis. Numerous traces of xylophagous insects and lignivorous fungi were observed. Their identification, their number and their distribution in the floor open on to very interesting new interpretations for both anthracologists and archaeologists as regards the condition of timber, the original source of the infestation, and the historical record of the building. This study is a direct and unprecedented application of a key for identifying traces of wood-boring insects in charred remains from the Roman period. Field samples were tested during the excavation of Camelin block, and microscope observation protocols were adapted to entomo-archaeology during anthraco-analysis.

Camelin 块木地板的木食昆虫（法国弗雷瑞斯）：一种结合考古学和炭疽昆虫学的跨学科方法

摘要 2013 年在古老的尤利斯论坛城（法国南部弗雷瑞斯）进行的预防性挖掘工作揭示了一个住宅区，在那里发现了一块保存完好的烧焦的木地板。它被放置在一座可以追溯到公元 1 世纪上半叶的房子里，用作一个用彩绘石膏装饰的房间的地板。它在公元 70 年左右被大火烧毁。用于其建造的木质树种（阿勒颇松、苏格兰松、山毛榉和冷杉）通过人类学分析进行了表征。观察到大量木食昆虫和食木真菌的痕迹。它们的识别、它们的数量和它们在地板上的分布为炭疽学家和考古学家关于木材状况、侵扰的原始来源和建筑物的历史记录提供了非常有趣的新解释。这项研究是直接和前所未有的应用，用于识别罗马时期烧焦的遗骸中钻木昆虫的踪迹。在 Camelin 块的挖掘过程中对现场样品进行了测试, 在炭疽分析过程中, 显微镜观察协议适用于昆虫考古学。
