[1] Millau, located in the historic region of Occitània (oc) / Occitanie (fr), was previously referred to as Milhau and Amilhau, tracing its history to the Roman town of Amiliavum - and to the Gallic town of Condatomagus before the arrival of the Romans. [2] [3] Richard I, Vicomte de Millau - who died between sometime between 1013 to 1023 - and his wife Senegonde de Béziers are considered to be the likely parents of Richard II.
