Forza Horizon 2?

This town reminds me of Forza Horizon 2. Could this town be the basis for certain in-game locations? Charizardmewtwo (talk) 19:24, 24 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Unfounded and unsourced opinion against Avallon being visited by Riothamus

Contrary to the unsupported view expressed in this article that "no ancient source" places Riothamus anywhere near Avallon, in fact Jordanes (Getica, XLV.237-238) states that "Riotimus" led survivors of the battle to the land of the Burgundians. A glance at any map of the region shows that Avallon was in Burgundian territory, and was the closest Burgundian town to the battle site at Deols and to the British base at Bourges.
