The historical character of the Louvie-Soubiron marble quarry, in the French Pyrenean Ossau Valley, has been brought to light through a combined analytical study of quarry samples and Roman archaeological artefacts of known chronology. The identification parameters, or fingerprints, established following a multi-method analytical approach applied to Louvie-Soubiron marble have served to authenticate several architectural and decorative elements carved in this marble. Different varieties of white (Lithotype-1) and grey and white veined marble (Lithotype-2), similar to the 1st quality of Carrara marble, have been distinguished in both, quarry and archaeological samples. The ornamental artefacts belonging to different Roman sites from both sides of the Pyrenees provide information on the timing of Louvie-Soubiron quarry management in the western part of the Roman Empire, and evidence the trans-Pyrenean use from at least the second half of the first century AD. Additionally, this study offers complementary perspectives to gain a better understanding of the historical use of this quarry which will certainly contribute to promoting practical initiatives and regional community actions.

通过对采石场样本和已知年代学的罗马考古文物的综合分析研究，揭示了法国比利牛斯山脉奥索山谷的Louvie-Soubiron大理石采石场的历史特征。通过对Louvie-Soubiron大理石采用多方法分析方法建立的识别参数或指纹已用于鉴定在此大理石上雕刻的几种建筑和装饰元素。在采石场和考古学样品中，已区分出不同种类的白色（Lithotype-1）和灰色和白色脉纹大理石（Lithotype-2），与卡拉拉大理石的第一品质相似。来自比利牛斯山两侧的罗马遗址的装饰性文物提供了有关罗马帝国西部路易-苏比龙采石场管理时间的信息，并证明至少从上半叶的后比利牛斯时代开始使用公元世纪 此外，本研究提供了互补的观点，以便更好地了解该采石场的历史用途，这无疑将有助于促进实际行动和区域社区行动。
