Historical background


DUROCASSIS (Area of Dreux)

(2nd - 1st century BC)

The Durocasses are not cited by Caesar in the Gallic Wars. They seem to have emancipated themselves from Carnut tutelage quite late, like the Parisii from that of the Senones. Their name means "the warriors of the fortified hill"..
