EN: This stilt house stands near the shore of the lake in the public park at the Laténium, Switzerland's largest archeological museum in Hauterive near Neuchâtel.
It is the reconstruction of a dwelling house from the late Bronze Age, about 3000 years ago. It is mostly based on the findings in Cortaillod-Est and Auvernier-Nord, but very similar settlements were discovered all along the lake, also here in Hauterive.
The house sits on stilts to protect the rooms from the then regular floods. The major part of the walls are from wood, but there is also a section with mud walls. The top of the thatch has a small wooden cover.
FR: Cette maison sur pilotis se trouve près du lac dans le parc public du Laténium, le plus grand musée archéologique de Suisse à Hauterive, près de Neuchâtel.
C'est la reconstruction d'une maison d'habitation datant de la fin de l'âge du bronze, il y a environ 3000 ans. Il repose principalement sur les découvertes de Cortaillod-Est et d'Auvernier-Nord, mais des peuplements très similaires ont été découverts tout au long du lac, également ici à Hauterive.
La maison repose sur des pilotis pour protéger l'intérieur des inondations alors régulières. La majeure partie des parois sont en bois, mais il y a aussi une section avec des parois de boue. Le dessus du chaume a une petite couverture en bois.
