Musée Archéologique du Pègue, Archaeological site and historic monument in Le Pègue, France.
The oppidum Saint-Marcel stands on a hilltop position, featuring fortified walls and structures that span across three hectares of land.
From 525 BCE, this settlement maintained commercial relations with Massalia, as evidenced by discoveries of black-figure Greek pottery across three hill levels.
The archaeological museum displays collections of pseudo-Ionian pottery, which demonstrates the wine trade between Phocaeans and local Voconces tribes.
The site includes educational programs and guided tours that present archaeological findings through detailed explanations of ancient settlement patterns.
Excavations revealed a six-generation gap without Massalian amphorae, replaced by Italo-Greek styles during a period of wine transportation changes.
