Summary

This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology.

Chateau de Balleroy located in the Calvados region of Normandy, France, played an important role in launching the career of Francois Mansart, popularizer of the Mansard roof. Historic architectural features, subsurface archaeological features, and graffiti were documented using drones and multispectral imagery. The analysis of these data enhances our understanding of how the people marked and modified the Chateau and its associated landscape at multiple sociospatial scales over the last four centuries.
