An emergency excavation in 1984 has allowed the investigations of part of the remains of the pars rustica of a villa from the first half of the Ist c. A.D. (stage 2), built on earlier remains from the second half the Ist c. B.C. (stage 1 : doubtless wood buildings). A basin, a canal, tanks lined with masonry and a circular kiln belonging to stage 2 are all part of the usual equipment of a villa and suggest the probability of oil production. These structures are abandoned early in the IIId c. A.D. and serve from then on as a rubbish dump to the end of the IVth c. A.D. (stage 3)- The villa itself appears to have been abandoned early in the Vth c. A.D., while a limited use of the site continued until the VIth c. A.D. The authors present the different categories of pottery and coins from each stage. A very detailed study of the fauna from the rubbish dumps of stage 3 allows some understanding of the socio-economical characteristics of this villa and its domain : vast cultivables areas, diversity of arable lands, breeding of mostly big cattle, consumption of high quality meat and an important contribution made by hunting, which suggests the leisure activities of a privileged social class
