摘要：This article presents a decisive contribution to the absolute chronology of one of the most spectacular constructions of the Neolithic societies of the Central Mediterranean, the ditch-trench of Stretto di Partanna (Trapani, Sicily). This structure, excavated in a calcareous bedrock to a depth of 13 m was, according to some authors, part of a complex hydraulic system, where cultural and symbolic features could have played an important role. The five radiocarbon dates presented in this article correspond to the last 2 m of stratification and indicate that the ditch-trench began to be filled in the early centuries of the 5 th millennium cal BC, between 4950 and 4800 cal BC. Consequently, we infer it was excavated and used immediately before this time.
