In 2004 and 2005, archaeological testing and several excavations preceded the construction of the aero-industrial platform of Méaulte (Somme) which covers 120 ha. The excavations included nineteen occupations ranging from the Neolithic to the Early Middle Ages. Since then, the development of the neighbouring commercial center called "Poppy Country" added an additional 80 ha and about twenty new sites were discovered. The last field research took place in 2021, but some elements have already been integrated into the publication on the twenty three centuries of occupation of this landscape. The publication presents a complete overview of domestic and funerary occupations from the Late Bronze to the the Middle Ages. The unpublished data presented concerns the general lay out of the sites, the structures and their evolution. The funerary domain is put into perspective with domestic structures. Material culture is also considered. In addition to the chronology and the understanding of the social status of the settlements, a study of ceramics and the artefacts is put to use to illustrate funeral rituals and their evolution over time. The publication concludes with an attempt to date occupations, integrate habitats, cemeteries and all the too often neglected peripheral facilities. The authors' stated ambition is to deliver the results of a collective work begun with the conception of the nine volumes of the excavation report. Faced with the relatively disparate study methods, we have chosen to give each author the freedom to develop specific issues, either in large chronological periods or in the form of thematic summaries. Some aspects that are poorly documented, such as metal artefacts and fauna, are limited to factual data only. An emphasis was placed on the recent Protohistory and the Roman period, with a diachronic dimension. Beyond the simple description of the remains, a typological analysis of the different types of structures is proposed. It is also in this form that the imposing fortified medieval site (site 5) is presented. Several over-lapping themes such as the landscape approach and cultural identity through funerary rituals have been developed, alongside others such as the relationships between residential areas and funerary spaces.
