Popis: International audience; In May 2019 the fi rst fi eldwork season took place at Tell Abu Habil, a Chalcolithic siteon the Jordanian bank of the middle Jordan Valley. Although preliminary, the results indicated thatduring the early fourth millennium BC, a time when considerable amounts of archaeological literatureclaim that the entire Jordan Valley had been abandoned, Abu Habil was in fact a centre dedicated to alarge-scale, workshop-based ceramic production. The aim of this paper is to refl ect on how the ceramicchaîne opératoire approach, if applied from the outset of a research project can orient it by generatingnew archaeological questions. Subsequently, what kind of epistemological issues emerge from thesechaîne opératoire-driven questions in general?
