abstract:
[FR] Lépontique, Celtibère, Gaulois et les sources archéologiques.
L’auteur se propose de pallier la rareté des documents linguistiques du Celtique continental en utilisant les sources archéologiques. Comme certains documents lépontiques ont reçu une datation plus reculée, il suppose que la culture immédiatement précédente (Champs d’Urnes) a pu être partiellement celtique, à cet endroit. Redéfinissant les traits spécifiques du Lépontique, il remarque le petit nombre des innovations (comparées à celles du Gaulois) et admet que le Proto-lépontique devait être proche du Celtique commun. L’irruption du gaulois en Cisalpine (ainsi qu’en bien d’autres endroits) n’est qu’un aspect de l’expansion importante de la culture Laténienne. Même la France a gardé des traces d’un parler celtique pré-gaulois (noms en -qu-). L’Espagne présente une situation plus compliquée, mais sans aucune trace confirmée de gaulois.

[EN] The author aims at correcting the paucity of Continental Celtic linguistical evidence through the use of archaeological data. Since some Lepontic inscriptions have recently be given an earlier datation, he assumes that the immediately preceding culture (Urn-fields) could have been partly Celtic, in that area. Reexamining the peculiar features of Lepontic, he notes the small number of innovations (compared with Gaulish), and suppose that Proto-Lepontic was probably very close to Common Celtic. The irruption of Gaulish into Cisalpine Gaul (and in many other countries as well) is but one facet of the massive expansion of La Tène culture. Even France has kept traces of a Celtic Pre-Gaulish language (the names with -qu-). Spain offers a more complex situation, with no confirmed trace of Gaulish.
