Many deposits of Gallo-Roman statuettes contain votive statuettes not particularly linked to the classical artistic style. The temple deposits in which these animalistic statuettes (series of stags or boars) were discovered were certainly Roman, but the animals could have belonged to cults of Celtic origin. -
