Commentary

Cette série dite des rois gaulois est très rare ; nous n’avons déjà proposé qu’un seul bronze KAIANTOLO au sanglier (MONNAIES 36, n° 1202) et deux bronzes BITOYIO BASILE au lion (MONNAIES 45, n° 914) et le bga_238706 de CELTIC 2.

Historical background

GALLIA - SOUTH WESTERN GAUL - LONGOSTALETES (Area of Narbonne)

(2nd - 1st century BC)

This people who occupied most of the departments of Aude and Hérault is mentioned neither by Ptolemy, nor by Strabo, nor by Caesar. Their coinage is known to us only by the treasures of Béziers (Hérault) discovered in 1871 and which contained between 750 and 800 coins of Languedoc style as well as that of Moussan in the Aude, discovered in 1967 and which contained 28 drachmas of style " Languedocian".
