Historical background
Greeks from Phocaea founded Massalia, Massilia in Latin, around 600 BC on the coast of southern Gaul, today's Marseille. The town controlled the trade between the Mediterranean and the Gaulish interior and founded daughter towns of its own such as Nicaea and Antipolis. Because it sided with Pompey in the civil war of 49 BC, Caesar besieged and subdued it.
