Defining "battlefield archaeology" - Theoretical considerations and approaches A l'inverse, la lecture de nombreux souvenirs et journaux de combattants montre que leurs auteurs ont, dans leur immense majorité, fait l'impasse sur la description de l'inhumation de leurs compagnons d'armes (quand elle a été possible immédiatement après les combats) et encore plus sur celle des corps de leurs adversaires restés sur le terrain conquis. "Au-delà d'un évident devoir de mémoire, du moins pour la plupart d'entre nous, la fouille détaillée de ces tombes semble pouvoir livrer des informations intéressantes sur les pratiques funéraires des divers belligérants, toutes nationalités confondues.

German Genealogy: Alsace / Elsass History When Charlemagne's grandsons divided his Empire at the Treaty of Verdun of 843, the region was in the middle of Lorraine (Lotharingia), part of a narrow middle strip granted to Lothar with German- and French-speaking kingdoms to either side. Now France began an aggressive policy of expanding westward, first to the Rhône and Meuse Rivers, and when those borders were reached, aiming for the Rhine. In the ninth century, this region became part of the heartland of the re-constituted Roman (more accurately "Carolingian") Empire of Charlemagne (Karl der Grosse). www.genealogy-net.de /reg/ELS-LOT/als-hist.html
