MONTLAUZUN Lot, France.

On the Penchant de Majonelle there existed a large Gallo-Roman establishment, no doubt a villa. It was occupied until very late times, as is attested by the discovery on the site of a Byzantine coin of Phokis.

Near the fountain and vanished hamlet of Frascati, an ancient kiln has been discovered in which glazed pottery was fired under oxidizing conditions.
