One of our favourite day trips is to the nearby oppidum (fortified town) at Ensérune, between Narbonne and Béziers. Created around 575 BC, it covered 30 hectares in the 2nd century BC. It acted as an economic and cultural interface between the Celts, Greeks, Iberians, Etruscans and later Romans.

This rare bronze purse was found with six #gold coins still inside in the #Celtic oppidum (settlement) at Manching. It was originally sealed with an organic material, presumably a leather strap.
The purse is rather small: 4.3x3.3 cm. The diameter of the smallest coin is 6.5 mm.🧵1/2

The oppidum (or possibly huge hillfort) of Stanwick was a major #IronAge centre of the Brigantes.
One of Britain's largest metalwork deposits was found nearby, indicating wealth comparable to mainland European societies.
