Southern Gaul — The Pentagram's Center
Location
Referred to in the Canon Timeline doc as “Gallia Cisalpina” — flagged naming issue
Key Facts:
- Garumna (Garonne) and Tolosa (Toulouse) anchor the western/inland edge
- Lugdunum (Lyon) anchors the northeastern edge
- Nemausus (Nîmes) and the Via Domitia anchor the eastern/coastal edge
- The Pyrénées and Mare Internum (Mediterranean) form the southern boundary
Overview:
- Per the Canon Timeline doc, the pentagram's center is anchored by Garumna, Tolosa, Lugdunum, Nemausus, the Via Domitia, the Pyrénées, and Mare Internum.
Novel Relevance:
- The literal center of Book I's map — the ground the whole five-point pattern is drawn around.
Sources:
- Straightforward Roman-provincial geography (see Roman Gaul, Roman Roads); the pentagram framing traces to Henry Lincoln's theory, not academic consensus.
