Briga, Archaeological site in Eu, France
The archaeological site of Briga spans over 65 hectares on a plateau overlooking the Bresle Valley in Seine-Maritime, Normandy.
Discovered in the late 18th century, Briga contained multiple temples, a wooden theater, and thermal baths during the Roman Empire period.
The site's inscription mentions Lucius Cerialius Rectus, a priest of Rome who funded the theater construction to honor imperial divine powers.
Researchers continue excavation work at the site, revealing new information about urban organization and construction techniques from the Roman period.
Archaeological evidence indicates Mercury was the principal deity worshipped at Briga, with votive deposits dating back to the 3rd century BC.
