Historical background

ANDECAVI (Area of Angers)

(1st century BC)

The Andécaves or Andes whose territory extended north of the Loire on the banks of the Mayenne, occupied Anjou which today corresponds to the departments of Maine-et-Loire and Sarthe. They are cited by Caesar in the Gallic Wars (II, 35; III, 7, VII, 4; VIII, 26).
