[QUOTE="lovingkindness, post: 1090457, member: 7570"] Hi there [USER=7963]@mspath[/USER] & others I am really enjoying myself. Today I have lost oodles of time scrolling through the ´Villejésus´ entries in [URL='https://gallica.bnf.fr/accueil/en/content/accueil-en?mode=mobile']Gallica. [/URL]Here´s what I found: Many artefacts from the Gallo-Roman period and earlier have been found in la Charente, some not far from Villejésus. In 1844 a museum was created by the [URL='https://www.sahcharente.fr/']Société Archéologique et Historique de la Charente[/URL] to house the artefacts. An illustrated catalogue was published in 1915. One of the sketches is of a terracotta head found in the commune of Villejésus. [URL='https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k65744140/f126.image.r=archeologic%20villej%C3%A9sus?rk=493564;4#']View here.[/URL] Re figuring out the name of Villejésus in Gallo-Roman times, who knows? A clue might be found in this book which contains archeological sites, villas, maps and roads in La Charente . It is not available for reading online, though. [ATTACH alt="16_Charente.png"]138651[/ATTACH] [URL unfurl="true"]https://aibl.fr/collections/carte-archeologique-de-la-gaule-16-la-charente/[/URL] I wonder if there is a list of names somewhere of Romans who owned villas in Aquitaine.... Cheers! [/QUOTE]
