Nîmes (Provençal Occitan: Nimes) is a city in southern France. It is the capital of the Gard department in the Languedoc-Roussilon. Nîmes has a rich history, dating back to the Roman Empire, and it is a popular tourist destination. The city derives its name from that of a spring in the Roman village. The contemporary coat of arms of the city of Nîmes includes a crocodile chained to a palm tree with the inscription COLNEM, for Colonia Nemausus, meaning the 'colony' or 'settlement' of Nemausus, the local Celtic god of the Volcae Arecomici. Veterans of the Roman legions who had served Julius Caesar in his Nile campaigns, at the end of fifteen years of soldiering, were given plots of land to cultivate on the plain of Nîmes.[1] The city was located on the Via Domitia, a Roman road constructed in 118 BC which connected Italy to Spain.
