The first traces of occupation dating from the Neolithic period (around 3000 BC). The first inhabitants lived in tents in canvas or skins on wooden frames and already practicing animal husbandry.
The presence of more than 500 flint tools and flakes of 6 square meters of post holes, wedging stones and pottery found during excavations bear witness to their presence.
At the end of the fourth century BC, the Gauls, the Volscians Arécomiques, will create a real walled city. She was surrounded by powerful walls and towers, which can still be seen in part. Its area was 5.6 hectares.
