==History==
Aignay-le-Duc belonged to the territory of [[Lingons]] and had a Celtic population. Its name may come from the Celtic: ''Ann-iacum'' meaning "The location of the water source" ''ann-'' is a well known root name for rivers [e.g. ''l'[[Ain (river)|Ain]]'', ''[[Inn (river)|Inn]]'' (Austria), ''[[Anio]]'' (Italy)]. The village is close to the source of the Coquille.<ref>Taverdet G. ''Names in the region of Bourgognes'', 2007, p. 112.</ref>
A yellow limestone used in the cemetery, dating from the late second century or early third century AD, is inscribed: ''Aug (ustis) sac (rum) deo Marti Cicolluis et Litavi P. Attius Paterc[l]u[s] [v(otum) s(olvit) l(ibens) m(erito)]'' which means:
"To the august sacred deities, to the god Mars Cicolluis and Litavi, P. Attius Paterculus paid his vow willingly and deservedly".<ref>BECK N. thesis. Goddesses in Celtic Religion Cult and Mythology: A Comparative Study of Ancient Ireland, Britain and Gaul, 2009, 110.</ref>
An inscription was found on a bronze vase near Aignay in 1896
During the revolutionary period of the National Convention (1792-1795), the town took the name of ''Aignay-Côte-d'Or'' abbreviated to ''Aignay''.<ref name=ehess>
