The origins of the name La Fussi・・re are not certain. It may be derived from the names of the villages Fussey, Foissy (C・・te d’Or), Fuiss・・ (M・・connais) Fusciacu, domaine de Fuscius or the name of a Gallo-Roman man taken from his physical characteristics: fuscus meaning ”brown, dark, sombre”. However, in the absence of the existence of a Gallo-Roman domaine, we could simply interpret La Fussi・・re as meaning brown earth. Another possible explanation would be that the term Fussi・・re originates from the latin word Fascia meaning an elongated strip of land, whether that be a ploughed field or a vine terrace, stretching from one part of the hillside between two supporting walls.
