International audience ; The excavations carried on the archaeological site at Liberchies (Belgium) have revealed the presence of a late temple built towards the end of the 3 rd c. in this road town in ruins. Crossed by the Roman road Bavay-Tongeren-Koln, this agglomeration belongs to the Germania Secunda . In the 4 th c., the town of Tongeren, keeping its status of caput civitatis , may yet have a well-established Christian community.

International audience ; The excavations carried on the archaeological site at Liberchies (Belgium) have revealed the presence of a late temple built towards the end of the 3 rd c. in this road town in ruins. Crossed by the Roman road Bavay-Tongeren-Koln, this agglomeration belongs to the Germania Secunda . In the 4 th c., the town of Tongeren, keeping its status of caput civitatis , may yet have a well-established Christian community. However, during Late Antiquity, and until the first decades of the 5 th c., the civitas territory under the control of the army will see a revival of pagan cult sites notwithstanding the measures taken against paganism. At the same time as Liberchies, a new temple is built inside the river agglomeration of Namur, until then folded on itself at the confluence of the Sambre and Meuse rivers. At Clavier-Vervoz, only the rebuilt temple, with a rich decoration in opus sectile , seems to be emerging in this neglected small town. The temple sites at Matagne-la-Petite, Matagne-la-Grande and at Anthée and Aisleau-Presles to a lesser degree, finally demonstrate the full scope given by the civitas to maintain the pagan traditional cults. ; Les fouilles programmées menées sur le site archéologique de Liberchies (Belgique) ont révélé la présence d’un temple tardif construit à la fin du III e s. apr. J.-C. dans l’agglomération routière en ruine. Cette dernière, traversée par la voie romaine Bavay-Tongres-Cologne, dépend administrativement de la cité des Tongres, relevant de la Germanie inférieure et ensuite de la Germanie seconde. Au IV e s., la ville de Tongres, qui conserve son statut de caput civitatis , avait sans doute déjà une communauté chrétienne bien établie. Nonobstant, durant l’Antiquité tardive, et ce jusque dans les premières décennies du V e s., le territoire militarisé de la cité va connaître un renouveau des lieux de culte du polythéisme en dépit des mesures prises à l’encontre du paganisme. Au même moment qu’à Liberchies, un nouveau temple est construit dans l’agglomération ...
