La Porte du Rebout, main entrance to the walled city, with a high stone wall and deep ditch, reconstruction, at Bibracte, a Gaulish oppidum or fortified city, once the capital of the Aedui, at Mont Beuvray near Autun in Burgundy, France. This 19m wide entrance is in the internal 5.2km long rampart, built in the 1st century BC in the Murus Gallicus style, reconstructed by archaeologists using cut stone and timbers. An older 7km long wall built 2nd century BC is protected in the forest. Before the Roman conquest of Gaul under Julius Caesar in 52 BC, the Celtic city of Bibracte had over 30,000 inhabitants.
