Tombe de Warcq, Roman archaeological site in Ardennes, France

The archaeological site contains preserved Roman thermal baths with five distinct chambers, including a frigidarium, tepidarium, caldarium, and praefurnium for heating.

Archaeological excavations conducted between 2012 and 2017 during A304 highway construction revealed two major discoveries, including Roman baths and agricultural tools.

The discovery of iron vallus teeth at the site provides evidence of advanced Gaulish harvesting techniques used during the Roman occupation period.

The thermal baths section maintains walls reaching 1.80 meters in height and features original stone flooring with intact hypocaust heating systems.

Researchers found rare iron farming implements at the site, including components of a Gaulish harvesting machine mentioned in ancient Roman texts.
