| Summary: | The archaeological investigations from the last decade gave several different perspectives of observation on the ancient town of Troyes/Augustobona.

They also show the growth of an orthonormal urban network at the end of August’s reign where the occupation features mainly belong to the La Tène tradition. The second half of the 1st c. AD saw the building of a probable periurban sanctuary, and the development of building methods from Mediterranean tradition. |
