Image description

Tabula Claudiana, ancient bronze tablet discovered in 1528 at Croix Rousse Hill (on the site of the Sanctuary of the Three Gauls), in Lyon, France (Roman: Lugdunum, Gaul). It is inscribed with a speech given by Emperor Claudius (a native of Lugdunum) to the Roman Senate in 48 AD proposing that wealthy citizens of Gaul might be allowed to enter the Senatorial class and the senate itself. The Gallic elite may have made the tablet to show their gratitude.
