Located in a strategic position, the Gallic site of Buffe Arnaud borders a road between Laugh, the ancient Alebaece Reiorum and the Lower Provence via the Durance valley. It without doubt belonged to the ethnic group of Reii who was certainly linked to the Salyes confederation. Smaller than most oppidums of the region of Riez, its location, topography and architecture make it look like more a small fort than a small town, more a castellum than an oppidum.
