Résumé : The paper presents the ongoing work of a PhD in history at CY Cergy Paris University, in partnership with the Institut National du Patrimoine. The current and increasingly rapid deployment of digital devices in archaeology remains poorly questioned, especially for research activities in this discipline. While the new digital tools and practices attempt to make themselves accessible to the greatest number of people, they also leave out some archaeologists and reveal risks of fracture in work collectives. From an observant participation, the author proposes a reflexive research work in epistemological, history of science and technology and sociology of professional archaeological organisations. The effects studied concern archaeology as a discipline, and archaeologists as a set of individual skills, collective practices and professional identities. The study material is made up of numerous observations and feedback from more than ten years of experience in the field of archaeological field data acquisition at the Institut national de recherches archéologiques préventives (Inrap) and in several collective multidisciplinary research projects.
