Le Tholonet (French pronunciation: [lə tɔlɔnɛ]; Lou Toulounet and Lo Tolonet in Provençal) is a commune in the Bouches-du-Rhône department in southern France.

The commune is near Aix-en-Provence, and at the foot of the montagne Sainte-Victoire.

[3] The earliest signs of human presence can be dated back to the Iron Age, and are located in the Infernet and Espinades ranges.

[4] The camp consists of fortifications build with large stone blocks.

Archeological surveys done from 1979-1980 helped discover furnishings dated from the Iron Ages up to the 2nd century BC, a time when the site was highly populated.
