Excerpt from The City of Carcassonne About the year 636 of Rome, the Senate, on the advice of Lucius Crassus, having decided that a Roman colony should be established at Narbonne, the border of the Pyrenees was soon provided with important posts in order to keep the passages into Spain and defend the course of the rivers. The Volces Tectosages, having opposed no resistance to the Roman armies, the Republic granted to the inhabitants of Carcassonne, Lodeve, Nimes, Pezenas and Toulouse, the privilege of governing themselves according to their laws and under their magistrates. The year 70 a. J.-C., Carcassonne was classed with cities said to be noble or elected. The fate of Carcassonne since then down to the fourth century is unknown. Like all the cities of Southern Gaul, it enjoyed profound peace, but, after the disasters of the Empire, it was only considered as a citadel (castellum). In 350 the Franks took it but, soon after, the Romans entered it again. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
