Aix-en-Provence - Oppidum d'Entremont

The archeological site of the Celto-Ligurian settlement of Oppidum d'Entremont lies some 3km/2mi north of Aix, off the D14 road. This settlement, which composed of an Upper and a Lower Town, was strategically placed on high ground. About 4ha/10acres have been uncovered, and pieces of broken pillars enable one to discern the outlines of some individual buildings and parts of the settlement. A mosaic floor and remains of what were apparently charnel-houses are all that is left of a sanctuary on the hill, destroyed in 123 B.C.
