description The question of the mutation of the funeral practices in Gaul and Germany between the end of the Ist century B.C. and the beginning of the IIIrd century A.D. is here dealt with, from the special case of the monuments and inscriptions. Examined in the first place are the conditions which presided over the adoption and diffusion of this usage through the analysis of the modalities of transmission of the regional patterns and peculiarities, then through bringing to the fore the socio-cultural significance of those memorial forms. The reception of certain aspects referring to the Roman cult of the dead, such as the dedication to the Manes or the celebration of the festival of the Parentalia is then envisaged through the epigraphic testimonies. Those two disparate yet complementary aspects enable one to capture the variety and complexity of the processes at work in the phenomena of acculturation that led to the romanisation of those areas.
