Charles-Tanguy Le Roux in his capacity as Assistant de la Circonscription des Antiquités Préhistoriques de Bretagne (Service des Fouilles: Ministère des Affaires Culturelles), has carried out rescue digs of all kinds. He is at present preparing his doctoral thesis on the petrogrphy of polished stone axes. The discovery of the stone axe-factory of Sélédin in the commune of Plussulien (Côtes-du-Nord), the subject of this article, is the result of work done in this field; work that was begun by Professor P.-R. Giot and Professor J. Cogné in 1949.
