Fount de Rome
Highlight • Other
The villa dates back to the Gallo-Roman period, more precisely to the 2nd century AD, during the Roman Empire.
The most remarkable feature of the site, observed for the first time in Languedoc, is the mortar of its walls. The sandstone blocks contain an extraordinary quantity of bivalve mollusk shells, especially Cardium and Tapes, with intact valves.
These were incorporated haphazardly and without any ornamental purpose by the ancient masons, perhaps replacing gravel.
It is possible that the shells, which do not include Pectens, were collected haphazardly with sand on the nearby beach for the preparation of the mortar.
