Saint Julien du Verdon

The contemporary village of Saint-Julien is located only 9km from the capital city of Suetrii called Ducelia, then Salinae, the ancient city of Castellane. An ancient pre-Roman road linking Cimiez to Riez via Annot and Entrevaux crossed the lower area of the town, now submerged under the waters of the lake. The section linking Vergons (capital of Vergunii) to Castellane crossed the Verdon, between Saint-Julien and Castillon, with a bridge strangely named the Julien bridge.
