Description
Gallia - Année 1987 - Volume 45 - Numéro 1 - Pages 87-103A partir des textes (César, Strabon, Pline), des émissions monétaires et de recherches archéologiques récentes, les auteurs proposent une théorie sur l'évolution de Nimes et des Arécomiques en distinguant plusieurs étapes : 1. La lex provinciae pompéienne a défini une unité «volques arécomiques», composée d'une vingtaine (au moins) de communautés (oppida) ; il existait des magistratures à la fois locales et confédérales. 2. César accorda le droit latin à chacune de ces communautés (oppida latina) ; à Nimes même fut déduite une colonie latine. 3. A l'époque augustéenne, les oppida latina volques perdirent leur autonomie et furent attribués à Nimes qui devient une vaste civitas probablement dotée du statut fédéré. A titre d'hypothèse, une nouvelle déduction de colons d'origine orientale expliquerait la précocité du culte impérial.
Starting from ancient texts (Caesar, Strabo, Pliny), coinage and recent archaeological research, the authors offer a theory about the evolution of Nimes and the Volcae, outlining several stages: 1. The lex provinciae of Pompey defined the Volcae Arecomici as a single unit made up of about twenty communities (at least). They had magistrates who were both local and federal. 2. Caesar granted latin right to each of these communities (oppida latina); Nimes received a Latin colony. 3. In the Augustean period, the oppida latina of the Volcae lost their autonomy and were attributed to Nimes which became a huge city, probably with the status of civitas foederata. Another hypothesis that there was a second wave of colonists from the East would explain the early appearance of the imperial cult.
