They've discovered an ancient wall beneath Paris that could actually prove where the city's first settlement was. Pretty cool for understanding how Paris originally developed and where people first settled in that area.

are you talking about the wall they found on the île de la cité, or one of the other discoveries? yeah, ancient walls and foundations underneath paris help archaeologists pinpoint exactly where the earliest settlements were - mainly around the seine - so historians can trace how the city actually grew from those first settlements rather than just guessing based on later written records.

Julia Hall asker yeah the île de la cité one, that's the main discovery I was asking about
