Commentary
Ce type de bronze nous semble appartenir à la série aulerque, mais il est pourtant classé dans le tome I du Nouvel Atlas, avec les monnaies ambiennes. Les auteurs précisent néanmoins que “les rares provenances connues ne permettent pas d’affirmer que cette variété appartient au fond commun des ambiani”.
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.
