AB  - The paper presents research carried out as part of a Collective Research Project on the Mervent-Vouvant forest in Vendée since 2018 following LiDAR acquisition. The latter made possible to substantially renew and complete the archaeological knowledge of this forest and to outline some ways of research. From research initially focused on the problem of fortified protohistoric habitats – because of the excavation of a fortified enclosure from Hallstatt D3 in the village of Mervent – the project has evolved into a diachronic study of the whole of the forest due to the mass of data attributable to other periods, in particular medieval and modern. LiDAR data turns out to be an extremely rich source of information, which remains to be analyzed further by combining the contributions of archeology, geoarchaeology, archaeogeography and history.
