Toulouse ZAC Niel (Haute-Garonne) : nouveaux éléments sur l’occupation gauloise du quartier Saint-Roch
Résumé
The old military barracks at Niel (the future ZAC Niel) is located in the heart of the quartier Saint-Roch. This area of Toulouse has seen numerous discoveries of middle and late Iron Age finds over an area of approximately 40 ha. The open late Iron Age settlement at Toulouse ‘Saint-Roch’ is three kilometres from the centre of the modern city on a lower terrace of the river Garonne, and has long been known from ancient historical sources and from archaeological finds. The rescue excavation undertaken by Archeodunum since October 2009 has uncovered around 3 ha of this settlement. The site is characterized by dense occupation dating to the 2 century BC with 70 wells, artisanal zones, domestic areas and a large quantity of Mediterranean imports.
