Summary

French caption

En 77, sur ordre de Vespasien, le cadastre des territoires autour d’Orange (Arausio) sont restaurés. Ces cadastres romains sont les mieux conservés au monde. Trois exemplaires de cadastres ruraux, gravés dans le marbre, ont été découverts en 1949 en de très nombreux fragments. Ils avaient été affichés dans la cité afin que les particuliers restituent les terres publiques qu’ils s’étaient appropriés. Des lignes parallèles, séparées de 708 mètres, se recoupent pour former des centuries de 50 hectares.
