What are «Car Ruins»?
Who were the inhabitants of the villa? Who was buried in the two temple tombs of the 1st and 2nd centuries AD? It is unknown.
But isn’t the essential elsewhere? Here, for example, the site is devoid of defensive architecture and yet displays an inordinate luxury: amazing, no? So they lived in peace ? Yes, and it lasted almost two centuries in Aquitania, the Roman province of the site of the Cars. This is one of the many reflections suggested by the Cars website: peace conditions economic prosperity. Thus, throughout the visit, the site of the Cars reviews some received ideas and tells us about us almost as much as the Roman imperial period.
