Abstract
The excavations conducted on the site of Goiffieux at Saint-Laurent-d’Agny, between 2008 and 2011, brought to light a vast villa belonging to the colony of Lugdunum and occupied as soon as its foundation in the years 30-40 BC. Mainly devoted to viticulture, this establishment is equipped at the beginning of our era with private baths, associated to a small well-preserved kitchen. In this article functional equipment (hob, bench) are analysed, as well as food waste found in this area (fauna, plant remains and pottery assemblages). The kitchen is linked to water devices that we can identify to a water mill and latrines. Its masonry hob equipped with vault reserves of fuel, and fed by the adjacent praefurnium, is a characteristic of urban culinae known in Campania and there is no equivalent in the Tres Galliae rural space. It attests to a strong influence of Italic architectural patterns, which goes together with the adoption of new culinary practices.
