    Discovery of Gallic Rampart in Paris Challenges Lutetia's Origins

    Archaeologists have discovered a 20-meter-long stone and wood wall on the Île de la Cité in Paris, potentially dating back to the Gallic Lutetia described by Julius Caesar. This finding could significantly impact understanding of the city's origins, as it challenges the traditional belief that Lutetia was centered in Nanterre. The wall shows signs of a violent fire, which may correspond to the destruction of Lutetia by fire in 52 BC. Carbon-14 dating places the remains between 200 and 10 BC.
