CAMP DE CORA
Go there and contact
Roman camp at 130 m altitude in Saint-Moré, used as a refuge for the inhabitants during the invasions of the Saracens and Normans.
One kilometer from Saint-Moré, the prehistoric site, 600 meters long and 400 meters wide, takes its name, Cora, from the river Cure. It was active during the Neolithic and the Bronze Age before becoming a Roman camp that took advantage of its altitude of 130 meters to defend its surroundings. The camp would have been destroyed in the5th century before serving as a refuge for the inhabitants during the invasions of the Saracens and then the Normans between 732 and 873. The dates of the fortifications of the camp are not established, some experts evoking the 8th century, others evoking the Merovingians. The excavations of the site began in 1861.
