Abstract
The regions of Alsace--Lorraine , inhabited, by such tribes as the Rauraci and Sequent, formed pert of ancient Gaul; they were subjected to the Roman dominion through the conquests of Julius Caesar. For five centuries they constituted a colony of the Roman Empire, being c included in the provinces of Germania, Superior and Maxima Sequanorum. The results of the Roman occupation, of the founding of towns, such as Strassburg, Metz, Verdun, Saverns, and the construction of roads and monuments , are visible in various parts of the country, ‘Io the east of the Rhine was a region of forest land inhabited by barbarians, who frequently crossed over the river into the adjacent lands on depredatory enterprises, and with the help of the Roman and Gallic legions were driven cut.
