Abstract	This paper describes the Quaternary Campo di Giove (CDG) rock avalanche which occurred along the western edge of the Maiella Massif in the central part of the Apennines, Italy. The aim of this work is to contribute to the present debate about the nature of large-sized, Quaternary debris deposits of the central Apennines that have been controversially interpreted in the last decades as moraine, tectonic breccias or landslides and to provide an example of a rock avalanche that was strongly controlled by local geomorphic conditions. Field evidence, supported by morphometric and sedimentary analysis of clastic deposits, has demonstrated that the material originated during a rock avalanche event which occurred in a significantly different geomorphological setting. The control on the depositional mechanism by the Middle Pleistocene landscape is revealed by the reduced lateral spreading and the evidently asymmetric shape of the accumulation area. L’article décrit l’avalanche rocheuse quaternaire de Campo di Giove qui se produisit en limite ouest du massif de Maiella dans la région centrale des Apennins (Italie). Les objectifs du travail étaient de contribuer aux discussions en cours sur les dépôts quaternaires de débris dans les Apennins, interprétés dans les dernières décennies soit comme des moraines, des brèches tectoniques ou des produits de glissements de terrain. De plus, cette description permet de montrer le rôle des facteurs géomorphologiques locaux dans les processus d’écoulement et d’arrêt d’une avalanche rocheuse. Les données de terrain, étayées par les analyses morphométriques et sédimentologiques des dépôts détritiques, ont permis d’établir que les matériaux étaient produits pendant l’événement, leurs caractéristiques dépendant du contexte géomorphologique. Le contrôle des processus de dépôt par le paysage du Pléistocène moyen est révélé par les étalements latéraux limités et la forme asymétrique de l’aire de dépôt.
