Le port antique de Chelles (Seine-et-Marne) : une course après la rivière by Yann Le Jeune, Corinne Charamond, Christian Charamond

“…-Phase 2, around 25 BC: a half-box wharf –with 17 planks supported by 14 oak posts– and an angle abutting the riverbank, allows this sector of the town at this time to be assigned the role of a real port allowing for the docking of merchant ships. -Phase 3, around 17 AD: a doubling of the previous wharf, more modest and less robust, was built 2 m towards the river in an attempt to thwart its siltation. …”
