Excisum - Eysses, Archaeological site in Villeneuve-sur-Lot, France.
The archaeological site features a circular tower with 1.1-meter-thick walls and remains of Roman architecture surrounding a central courtyard.
Established between the reigns of Tiberius and Hadrian, Excisum functioned as a Roman settlement at the intersection of roads connecting Agen, Périgueux, Cahors, and Bordeaux.
The excavation site includes the foundations of shops and a temple dedicated to Mars, revealing the daily activities of Roman inhabitants.
Visitors can explore the archaeological findings in the museum located within the former presbytery of Saint-Sernin church, 1.5 kilometers from city center.
Bronze working sites discovered during the 1971 excavations provide evidence of industrial activities during the High Empire period.
