Puy d'Issolud, Archaeological site in Vayrac, France
Puy d'Issolud stands on a high plateau near Saint-Denis-lès-Martel, featuring extensive excavation zones that reveal ancient settlement patterns from Gallo-Roman times.
The French Ministry of Culture officially identified this location in 2001 as Uxellodunum, the site of the final major battle of the Gallic Wars in 51 BCE.
Archaeological discoveries at the site include Roman weapons, military equipment, and lithic tools that demonstrate the technological capabilities of ancient civilizations.
Researchers and visitors can access the site through guided tours that explain the excavation areas, archaeological findings, and historical significance of this Gallic settlement.
