It was characterized by the Gaulish adoption or adaptation of Roman culture, Roman culture, language, morals and way of life in a uniquely Gaulish context.

The bishop, in effect, took the place of the abbot, and the monastery itself was headed by a prior. History Priories first came to existence as subsidiaries to the Abbey of Cluny. Many new houses were formed that were all subservient to the abbey of Cluny and called Priories. As such, the priory came to represent the Benedictine ideals espoused by the ...
