Historical background


DUROCASSIS UNSPECIFIED

(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". Certain coins, reputed to be carnutes, could probably be attributed to them!.
