[FR] Le balisage des chemins est matérialisé par des bornes contemporaines similaires à celles qui existaient à l’époque de saint Martin (4ème siècle) le long des voies romaines (bornes milliaires). Leur forme s’inspire de bornes du Doyenné de Saint-Martin, que l’on trouve à Betz-le-Château, Indre-et-Loire. Elles y furent placées en 1565 pour indiquer la limite des parcelles des forêts appartenant au
Chapitre de Saint-Martin-de-Tours. Sur l’une d’entre elles, on voit inscrites les lettres D St M, qui correspondent au Doyenné de Saint-Martin.

They were placed there in 1565 to indicate the boundary of the parcels of forests belonging to the
Chapter of Saint-Martin-de-Tours. On one of them, we see inscribed the letters D St M, which correspond to the Deanery of St. Martin.
