The keys to the city of Lyon, France. 1805.

Joseph Chinard drew the pieces and the goldsmith Antoine Saunier made them.

They are symbols of Lyon’s allegiance to Napoleon I, who lifted the city from its ashes after the French Revolution. They were created in 1805 on the occasion of the emperor’s visit to Lyon.

These three keys are works of art and do not materially open any door of the city. They symbolically represent the three divisions (north, west and south) that made up the city under the First Empire (1804-1814). Each is decorated with a symbol illustrating the specificity of the neighborhood.

They were made for the visit to Lyon on April 10, 1805, of Emperor Napoleon I and Empress Josephine. They are presented to him publicly, in front of a floor of politicians —whose names are engraved on the back of the dish — as a sign of allegiance and gratitude on the part of the city.

"Huge Skeletons Found in France," Kingston Whig-Standard. May 6, 1933. Page 9. --- Bones of Man Seven Feet Tall Are Unearthed in Paris --- PARIS - Bones reputed to have be- longed to a man seven feet tall, have been found in a Neolithic tomb on the outskirts of Paris. A report on the discoveries has just been given at the Sorbonne. Paul Lemoine, director of the Paris Museum of Natural History, M. Lantier, curator of the archaeological museum at St.-Germain-en-Lye, Professor Rivet and other savants, have visited the tomb and are agreed that it is of sufficient, interest for excavation work to be continued with renewed effort. Eight seven-foot skeletons were brought to light beneath a huge monolith, weighing more than four tons. A number of the bones were burned. indicating that the bodies had been burned before burial, and little was found around them save a few flint arrow and spear-heads. which lead to the belief that the persons buried not of very high caste. The report of the discovery made at the Sorbonne, was read before the Societe Prehistorique de France.

Marseille Au Musée d’Histoire, une expo fort intéressante “Trésors Coupables” qui traie des pilleurs de tombes, et autres “détectoristes” (mot-valise mêlant détecteur de trésor et terroriste) qui mettent à sac des sites archéologiques.... Ici, pas mal d’objets ayant été retrouvés chez des trafiquants ou de simples particuliers. Très frustrant donc de ne pas forcément connaître la provenance exacte de ces objets.

- les 2 premières : statue-menhir : homme avec poignard dans un baudrier - Pozacciu, près d’Ajaccio

- les 2 suivantes : pointes de flèches néolithiques - Afrique

- les 2 dernières : fossiles d’Ophiures et de Trilobites - Paléozoïque, MAroc
