Historical background
LE PUY-EN-VELAY (ANICIO) - Haute-Loire
(5th - 8th)
After conquering the region from the Vellavi, who took an active part in the war against the invader, the Romans settled in Le Puy, which they named Anicium, where they founded a religious centre. The end of the 5th century was a troubled period for Auvergne. Despite the opposition of Sidonius Apollinaris, bishop of Clermont, and the Gallo-Romans loyal to Rome, Emperor Julius Nepos let the Visigoths take control of the province in 475, of which Velay was a part. After the Battle of Vouillé in the spring of 507, Clovis conquered all of Aquitaine..
