If you ever plan a group road trip to Thermopylae, let me know!

Wondering about Alesia, has there been a definitive finding on which place was the actual site? I'm assuming we're talking about Caesar laying siege to the Gauls. I always thought there was some disagreement about where Alesia was located, I know there were at least a couple places that were claiming to be the site, or were at one time believed to be the site.
