About the Book

Cet ouvrage explore la transformation du paysage culturel de la région de Fort-Liberté sur le long terme. Il se base sur les traces de différents groupes sociaux façonnant le paysage culturel du lieu sur une longue période chronologique. Cette région renferme un patrimoine archéologique exceptionnel, sous la forme de vestiges amérindiens, de traces des premières villes coloniales espagnoles et d'habitations coloniales françaises. Habitée depuis environ l'an 3000 av. J.-C., cette région a connu de profondes mutations au fil du temps, en particulier lors de l'invasion coloniale de 1492, qui a entraîné l'effondrement des communautés amérindiennes.

Les fondements théoriques et méthodologiques de cette étude sont ancrés dans l'archéologie du paysage et utilisent des approches multidisciplinaires et diachroniques pour combiner les données archéologiques, ethnographiques et historiques. Suivant une approche de la biographie du paysage, l'étude amène à une redéfinition de la vision traditionnelle du village amérindien car elle envisage de considérer le village plutôt comme une agglomération de sites, aux dépens d'un seul site caractérisé par son extension. L'invasion coloniale de 1492 a engendré une dynamique d'implantations continues et intensives amenant à impacter drastiquement la région Fort-Liberté. La transformation coloniale du paysage a pris une forme radicale et dramatique, conduisant à l'effondrement des valeurs culturelles politiques, et économiques des premiers habitants de l'île. Le paysage colonial espagnol, fortement marqué par des implantations urbaines à petite échelle et de l'élevage de bétail, celui des Français constitue une forme de réorganisation et de réaménagement de l'espace qui se manifeste par les habitations coloniales à grande échelle et l'introduction de nouvelles fonctions et formes d'activités sociales, économiques et politiques.

La biographie du paysage suggère que les périodes historiques sont considérées comme des manifestations qui se sont connectées les unes aux autres, et non pas comme des événements isolés. Les sites archéologiques dispersés dans l'environnement naturel expriment l'idée d'un palimpseste complexe de l'histoire de la région.

English abstract

This study explores long term landscape transformations of the Fort-Liberté region, Haiti. By using a landscaped biography approach, this research aims to understand the substantial developments of the region, from the Amerindian occupation, through the Spanish colonization, to the French colonial period. The study of the transformation of the landscape in the longue-durée suggests that activities of cultural groups are considered as events that were connected to each other, not just as superposed layers or isolated events. The archaeological sites dispersed in the natural environment express the idea of a complex palimpsest of the region's history. This study of the Haitian cultural landscape has proposed to take into account the multi-layered nature of the landscape in order to avoid the dichotomy between pre-colonial and colonial in this context of long-term landscape transformation.
