Abstract
The exploration of north-east fields of the city of Aix-en-Provence due to wideranging works at the hospital, brought to light a whole area from the urban periphery of the antic city. The researches provided an opportunity to excavate, for the first time, the road leading to the north of the territory. It borders, by the east, agricultural lands in which a lot of water control devices take turns. They aim for collect groundwater for irrigation or are intended for canalize irregular but powerful flows caused by violent rainstorms. The road borders also a burial area which was assumed for a while. It echoes the funeral unit excavated on its other side, in the 1950’ s. The information collected help to shed light on the topography and the territory’s occupation methods of this area between the middle of the Ist century and the beginning of the IIIrd century.
