Rochereil Rochereil is a prehistoric cave near Lisle in the French département Dordogne. Besides about 4000 stone and bone artefacts it contained the tomb of an adult, the trepanned skull of a two-year-old and the calcined bones of two adolescents. == Geography, geology and site description ==
The Rochereil cave, sometimes also written ''Rochereuil'', belongs to the commune of Grand Brassac. It was named after a nearby water mill, ''Moulin de Rochereil''. The cave is situated along the right embankment of the Dronne River, not far downstream from the confluence of the Euche, a right tributary of the Dronne. Lisle is about 2.5 km farther south. The cave formed in a vertical, 20 metre high limestone cliff made up of flat-lying Coniacian. In front of the cave passes a small road leading to the hamlets of ''Lonlaygue'' and ''Renamon''. Only a little way upstream the departmental road D 2 from Saint-Just to Bussac crosses the Dronne. Over the bridge on the left side of the Dronne is small cliff with the abri of Pont d'Ambon which is also an important site of the Lower Paleolithic. About 2 km farther south another site was discovered near La Peyzie containing remains from the Upper Magdalenian. The very small cave (not more than 10 square metres in area) opens to the south, less than 100 metres downstream from the mill. The entry, set back about 15 meters from the Dronne, is only a few metres above river level and has somewhat been blocked by rockfall. The archeological finds were made in the interior of the cave and immediately in front of it.
