Abstract

This paper scrutinises the relationship between Georges Laplace and Italian prehistoric research during the second half of the 20th century. The intellectual and institutional consequences of Laplace’s scientific mobility are analysed both as regards the evolution of Italian Palaeolithic research and Laplace’s own professional career. This individual-centred perspective also appears as a relevant proxy to depict the institutions and actors that formed the French-Italian part of the internationalised scientific prehistoric archaeology community, as well as some effects of the scientific policy of each country.
