Kantharos or wine cup, from Alesia, 1st century BC, partially gilded silver, from the collection of the Musee d’Archeologie Nationale Domaine de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, gift of Napoleon III in 1867, in the Centre d'Interpretation, a visitor centre designed by Bernard Tschumi, at the MuseoParc Alesia, on Mont-Auxois near Alise-Sainte-Reine, Burgundy, France. Alesia was originally a Celtic settlement which became a Gallo-Roman town after being conquered by Julius Caesar during the Gallic Wars.
