History and Culture[edit]

Inhabitants of Meaux are called Meldois. Both names Meaux and Meldois originated with the Meldi, the Latin name of the original Gaulish tribe who occupied this area of the valley of the Marne river. Although during the Roman period the city was called Lantinum by the Romans, the name of the Meldi persisted and was finally kept for naming both the city and its inhabitants.
