Remarks

Fonteny drew on Belleforest. If the existence of a Temple of Apollo at Toulouse cannot be doubted, its situation remains uncertain. Certain historians identify, without proof, its site as being that currently occupied by the Church of Saint-Quintin. According to ancient hearsay, the temple was located in the Daurade area
