About This Event

**Commemorating the Dead: Roman monuments in SW France** **Speaker - James Bromwich** In south-west France there are some of the best preserved mausoleums in all of France. They are distinctive features of the landscape, often isolated, having towers with pyramidal tops once reaching over 20 metres high. While cinerary urns are characteristic of the Roman era as a whole, the south-west of France can claim two distinctive groups, one concentrated in the Limousin, the other in the central Pyrennees. The latter marked by their originality both in appearance and find sites: oblong marble caskets, frequently decorated with strange figures once known locally as ‘little saints’, these are often associated with altars dedicated to gods found nowhere else.
