Commentary
Cette série de bronzes comprends deux types différents ; selon le prototype de l’avers. La distinction a bien été faite dans le Nouvel Atlas, avec les monnaies dérivées des “types éburovices” (avec les deux revers différents) et ce type dérivé des “statères belges” (et plus principalement suessions).

The distinction was clearly made in the New Atlas, with the coins derived from the “éburovice types” (with the two different reverses) and this type derived from the “Belgian staters” (and more mainly suesssions)

Historical background
GALLIA - AULERCI EBUROVICES (Area of Évreux)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
The Aulerci were subdivided into three tribes: Aulerci Diablintes, Aulerci Cenomani and Aulerci Éburovices. The territory of Aulerques Éburovices corresponds to the current department of Eure. They are quoted several times in Caesar's Commentaries. According to the latter, they would have massacred their Senate favorable to the Romans in 56 BC and would have joined the Unelles and the revolted Lexoviens. In 52 BC, they provided a contingent of three thousand men to the relief army. : Caesar (BG.(II, 34; III, 17, 29; VII, 4, 75; VIII, 7). Kruta: 72.
