By bringing together more than 350 emblematic or exceptional objects, some of which have never been seen before, this catalog offers an original immersion into the end of the Iron Age ( 3rd - 1st century BC). This transitional period, which saw the affirmation of the Gallic peoples, was also marked by variations in the intensity of contacts with the Mediterranean world, itself shaken by Roman expansion. From the territory of the Volques Arecomiques (Languedoc) to that of the Aedui, Lingones and Arverni (Burgundy, Franche-Comté, Auvergne), the presence of similar objects raises questions. Cultural interactions, economic exchanges, political contacts or identity strategy? These are all realities that archaeology can bring to light.
