Commentary
Ce type de potin est beaucoup plus rare que les traditionnels potins au sanglier (DT. 2477-2480) ; il est caractéristique avec l'arcade sourcilière qui se confond avec le contour de l'arrière du crane. Le revers a un sanglier "réaliste" du même type que les DT. 2479-2480. Ce type manque à la publication du Musée d'Evreux. La seule mention semble être l'ouvrage de H. Patat sur les potins, n° 17.10.
Historical background
GALLIA - AULERCI EBUROVICES (Area of Évreux)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
The Aulerci were subdivided into three tribes: Aulerci Diablintes, Aulerci Cenomani and Aulerci Éburovices. The territory of Aulerques Éburovices corresponds to the current department of Eure. They are quoted several times in Caesar's Commentaries. According to the latter, they would have massacred their Senate favorable to the Romans in 56 BC and would have joined the Unelles and the revolted Lexoviens. In 52 BC, they provided a contingent of three thousand men to the relief army. : Caesar (BG.(II, 34; III, 17, 29; VII, 4, 75; VIII, 7). Kruta: 72.
