What remains to be discovered about "our ancestors the Gauls"? Everything, or almost everything. Advances in archaeology over the past forty years have continued to change our understanding of the Gauls, even if many mysteries still remain concerning them. Where did they come from, who were they, how was this Gallic society organized before the Roman conquest, what do we know about their religion, their language, or their art? A tribute to the patient and scholarly work of archaeologists, this book offers a nuanced vision of the Gauls, through all aspects of their daily life, including their religious practices, where the scope of research advances knowledge every day, such as that of religious sanctuaries.
