Metal vessels in Northern Gaul: acculturation or exoticism?
Résumé
The two centuries preceding the Roman conquest were marked by societal and cultural transformations. Even though Caesar describes northern Gaul as resistant to Mediterranean influence, the archeological record shows the presence of italic products north of the river Seine. Focusing on metallic vessels, the table manners and their transformations on the eve of the 1st century AD will be questioned in the present paper. Does the arrival of imported goods indicate the adoption of the Roman way of life? Which population groups are affected by these changes? These questions will be approached on the basis of recent data collected for a dissertation project carried out within the scope of a binational PhD between the universities of Lyon 2 and Tübingen.
