Glanum (Hellenistic Γλανόν, as well as Glano, Calum, Clano, Clanum, Glanu, Glano) was an ancient and wealthy city which still enjoys a magnificent setting below a gorge on the flanks of the Alpilles mountains. It is located about one kilometre south of the town of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Originally a Celto-Ligurian oppidum, it expanded under Greek influence before becoming a Roman city. As it was never built over by settlements after the Roman period but was partly buried by deposits washed from the hills above, much of it was preserved. Only from 1921 it was discovered and, after 17 Centuries, many of the impressive buildings have been excavated and can be visited today. In PiP the structure of the Main Street

Questa è una cartolina postale disegnata da papà Raoul a Pavia il 12 Febbraio 1945, dopo i bombardamenti del Settembre 1944 che distrussero il vero vecchio ponte. Schizzo a pastello su questa carta particolare, predisposta per una cartolina postale, fortunatamente per me mai utilizzata per questo scopo. In PiP il retro. Raoul Caracci Explored

L'aqueduc et les moulins de Barbegal constituent un complexe romain de meunerie hydraulique situé à Fontvieille, à proximité de la ville d'Arles. Cet ensemble a été qualifié comme la plus grande concentration connue de puissance mécanique du monde antique. L'aqueduc de Barbegal était un ouvrage complexe, composé de deux aqueducs parallèles, en partie sur arches, l'un conduisant l'eau potable vers la cité à partir de la chaîne des Alpilles, le second alimentant la meunerie. L'aqueduc arrivait en haut d'une colline, passait par une saignée, alimentait un réservoir régulateur répartiteur et actionnait une série de roues à aubes parallèles disposées en cascade qui fournissaient l'énergie à des moulins à farine. Cette meunerie comprenait huit roues à aubes disposées le long de deux conduits parallèles. Ce complexe a été construit au début du IIe siècle et a fonctionné au moins jusqu'à la fin du IIIe siècle. L'aqueduc et les moulins de Barbegal ont été construits pour desservir la ville d'Arles. La meunerie pouvait produire 4,5 tonnes de farine par jour, de quoi alimenter les 12500 habitants de la ville d'Arles de cette époque.
