Exilles (Occitan: Exilhas, local Occitan: Isiya,[2] Piedmontese: Isiles, Latin: Scingomagus,[3] Italianization under Italian Fascism: Esille) is a comune (municipality) in the Metropolitan City of Turin in the Italian region Piedmont, located about {{convert|60|km|mi}} west of Turin, on the border with France.

It is the location of the Exilles Fort, an alpine fortification which guarded the route between the Kingdom of France and the Duchy of Savoy.

Exilles borders the following municipalities: Bardonecchia, Bramans (France), Chiomonte, Giaglione, Oulx, Pragelato, Salbertrand, and Usseaux.

History

The ancients considered Exilles the first place in Italy coming from Gaul over the Alpine passes. As Scingomagus ({{lang-grc|Σκιγγόμαγος}}), Exilles is first mentioned by Strabo,[4] who, when speaking of one of the passes of the Alps, says that from Ebrodunum (modern Embrun) on the Gallic side through Brigantium (modern Briançon) and Scingomagus and the pass of the Alps to Ocelum, the limit of the land of Cottius (the Alpes Cottiae) is {{convert|99|mi|km|order=flip}}; and at Scingomagus Italy begins, the distance from Scincomagus to Ocelum being {{convert|27|mi|km|order=flip}}. Pliny the Elder also makes Italy extend to the Alps at Scincgmagus, and then he gives the breadth of Gallia from Scingomagus to the Pyrenees and Illiberis.
