Luc-en-Diois

Luc-en-Diois is a village in the Drôme valley in south-eastern France, the site of Lucus Augusti, one of the two chief towns of the Celtic Vocontii under Roman rule, alongside Vasio (Vaison-la-Romaine). Its role as a centre was later taken over by nearby Dea Augusta, modern Die. The territory of the Vocontii formed part of Gallia Narbonensis.
