Bibracte was the capital of the Aedui Celtic people, particularly developed in the 1st century B.C. A nerve center for the power of the Aeduan aristocracy, it was also a major center for crafts and trade, with miners, blacksmiths and coin miners working side by side on an area of almost 135 hectares. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bibracte
