Le polissoir de Bois Livière a été trouvé en juillet 1911 par le Dr Louis Dubreuil-Chambardel et Henri Guerlin au bord d'un champ, sur la commune de Saint-Cyr-sur-Loire. Il présente trois rainures et des traces de cassures sur deux de ses faces, ce qui laisse penser qu'il s'agit probablement d'un fragment d'un polissoir fixe de plus grande taille. C'est le troisième polissoir fixe trouvé en Indre-et-Loire. Propriété de la Société Archéologique de Touraine par don du Docteur Dubreuil-Chambardel , il est actuellement en dépôt au Musée du Grand Pressigny, ainsi que tous les autrs polissoirs de la SAT. Informationsrecueillies auprès de la conservatrice du Musée archéologique de Tours : qu'elle soir ici remerciée !
