Le Thovey: a Roman mansio
"Under what are now parts of Faverges and the outlying hamlet of Viuz, the Roman town of Casuaria marked an important stop along the Turin-Geneva road, as can be seen in the famous Peutinger Table (the last surviving Roman road map and travel atlas). Several Gallo-Roman sites of old Casuaria have been uncovered; the largest site investigated to date is the dig known as Le Thovey, within modern Faverges".

Carynx: Reconstructions - Impressions of Celtic times staged by experts "The Celts Group CARNYX - named after a Celtic war trumpet - was founded in spring 1999 by archaeologists and historically interested people from TŸbingen and its environs. At present the group consists of approximately 10 members. The main aim of CARNYX is to present the Celtic era of European prehistory as detailed and realistically as possible.
