Iculisma was founded (lately) by the Romans in the Province of Aquitania, South-West of Gallia, around AD.280.

The capital city of Aquitania was Burdigala (Bordeaux), then Mediolanum Santonum (Saintes). This latter city was also founded by the Romans many years ago (20 BC; Burdigala: 10 BC), and was inhabited by the Santons, whose province is rich enough to attract the Helvets and thus start the "Bellum Gallicum" (young Caesar prevented the Helvets to walk accross Gallia).

Iculisma is located about 60 km East of Mediolanum Santonum, which is also on the River Charente, and 120 km North of Burdigala. It belongs to the Santonum region, part of Aquitania.

It was founded here for military purpose: first barbarous threats and invasions (Allans, Vandals, then Wisigoths).

Nowadays it has become Angouleme (100,000 inh).
