MUNIER Claudine, archaeologist in the direction of the Historical Heritage (service archeology of the city of Besançon) and attached to the laboratory will present the palatium of Vesentio.

The preventive excavation carried out in 2004 at the Lumière College in Besançon (published in 2017), gave the opportunity to study the evolution of a residential area developed at the end of the Gaulish era at the end of the 3rd century: architecture , construction techniques, decorations (mosaics) and furniture make it possible to define the daily life of the inhabitants of this rich district.
