Access to the commune is by Highway D901 which enters on the north-west border, continues to the village and exits the south-east border. There is also Highway D101 linking the village to [[EtalanteÉtalante]] to the south-east. Highway D954 links the village through the eastern border to [[Saint-Broing-les-Moines]]. There is also Highway D112 which exits the commune in the north-east. There are extensive forests in the eastern part of the commune (Bois de Fort Fais, Bois du Bas des Soulers etc.) with about two thirds of the commune farmland. There are no villages other than Aignay-le-Duc.
 
The ''Coquille'' stream flows through the town and forming the eastern border is the ''Brevon'' stream. The Coquille flows to the ''Revinson'' stream which joins the [[Seine]] river. The Brevon flows north and eventually joins the Seine near the town of in [[Brémur-et-Vaurois]].

==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.

An inscription was found on a bronze vase near Aignay in 1896, which said, according to Chassenay, said: ''Aug(usto) sacr(um) deo Albio et Damonae Sext(us) Mart(ius) Cociliani f(ilius) ex jussu ejus [v(otum)] s(olvit) l(ibens) m(erito)'' meaning "It is sacred to Augustus, to the gods Albius and Damona, Sextus Martius, son of Cocilianus, in order to fulfill his vow.<ref>{{CIL|13|2887|R=}}, {{CIL|13|11233|R=}}</ref>.
 
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>[http://cassini.ehess.fr/cassini/fr/html/fiche.php?select_resultat={{Cassini-Ehess|210 Communal Notice - |Aignay-le-Duc, consulted on 10 May 2013]}}</ref>.

==DemographyPopulation==
In 2009, the commune had 335 inhabitants. The evolution of the number of inhabitants is known through the population censuses conducted in the town since 1793. From the 21st century, a census of municipalities with fewer than 10,000 inhabitants is held every five years, unlike larger towns that have a sample survey every year.<ref group=Note>At the beginning of the 21st century, the methods of identification have been modified by law No. 2002-276 of 27 February 2002 [http://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/?url=http://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/affichTexte.do?cidTexte=JORFTEXT000000593100%26fastPos=1%26fastReqId=2036940488%26categorieLien=cid%26oldAction=rechTexte&title=loi%20no%C2%A02002-276%20du%2027%20f%C3%A9vrier%202002 ], the so-called "law of local democracy" and in particular Title V "census operations" which allow, after a transitional period running from 2004 to 2008, the annual publication of the legal population of the different French administrative districts. For municipalities with a population greater than 10,000 inhabitants, a sample survey is conducted annually, the entire territory of these municipalities is taken into account at the end of the period of five years. The first "legal population" after 1999 under this new law came into force in 1 January 2009 and was based on the census of 2006.</ref> <ref group=Note>In the census table and the graph, by convention in Wikipedia, and to allow a fair comparison between five yearly censuses, the principle has been retained for subsequent legal populations since 1999 displayed in the census table and the graph that shows populations for the years 2006, 2011, 2016, etc.. , as well as the latest legal population published by [[INSEE]]</ref>
 
The inhabitants of the commune are known as ''Aignacois'' or ''Aignacoises'' in French.<ref>[https://www.habitants.fr/cote-d-or-21 Le nom des habitants du 21 - Côte-d'Or], habitants.fr</ref>
