History


Tracks of an early settlement dating back to the 3rd century BC have been found. However, it appears that in 124BC those tracks were destroyed.[2]


In the 16th century, there were attacks from Aix-en-Provence and Les Baux-de-Provence, and the Castle was destroyed.[2] In 1790 there were 180 inhabitants, mostly shepherds.[2]


In the 19th century many inhabitants left owing to the Industrial Revolution.[2] By 1936 there were only 730 inhabitants.[2]
