The Recueil des inscriptions gauloises (RIG) is a comprehensive collection of Gaulish language inscriptions. The RIG gives archaeological context, readings, commentary, proposed translations, and images for each Gaulish inscription. Inscriptions of only one word are usually excluded.
It bears one of the most important inscriptions in the Gaulish language. The inscription is in Roman cursive on a lead tablet preserved in two fragments, dated to about 100 AD. It is the longest preserved Gaulish text, extending to more than 1000 letters or 160 words (an unknown number of lines at the end of the text are lost).
