Commentary
Ce type dit “du Tremblois” est semblable à la classe Ia et Id1 pour le bandeau, mais le profil ne s’intègre pas dans la série des potins leuques en raison du nez et de la bouche qui rappellent plutôt le traitement des potins séquanes à la grosse tête série A.
This type called “du Tremblois” is similar to class Ia and Id1 for the headband, but the profile does not fit into the series of leuco gossips because of the nose and mouth which are more reminiscent of the treatment of the Sequani gossips with a big head series A

The Leuques are mentioned only once in the Gallic Wars. Their neighbors were the Médiomatriques, the Lingons and the Séquanes. The Leuques as well as the Séquanes and the Lingones provided Caesar with wheat when the Roman army stopped at Vesontio (Besançon) to refuel before facing the Germans of Ariovistus (58 BC).
