Commentary
Le portrait de cet exemplaire semble très stylisé. Au-dessus du cheval, on peut distinguer un phi ou bien les restes d’un cavalier stylisé. Le flan semble découpé à la cisaille.
The portrait of this specimen appears highly stylized. Above the horse, one can distinguish a phi or the remains of a stylized rider. The flank appears to have been cut with shears.

Historical background
GALLIA - NEDENES (oppidum of Montlaures)
(2nd - 1st century BC)
This small people is neither cited by Ptolemy nor by Strabo any more than by Caesar. He must have belonged to the more general group of Longostaletes, in the region between Narbonne and Béziers. It is the recent excavations, carried out over the past thirty years, which have made it possible to restore to the oppida of Montlaurès and Ensérune the importance they had acquired between the creation of the province of Narbonnaise, in 118 BC. C., and the end of the Gallic Wars.
