Geography
Aurons is located in the heart of the Massif des Costes mountains some 6 km north-east of Salon-de-Provence. Access to the commune is by the D16 road from Salon-de-Provence which passes through the centre of the commune north of the village and continues north-east to Alleins. Access to the village is by the D68 road from Pélissanne in the south which passes through the village and joins the D16 just to the north of the village. Route No. 8 of the Libébus network serves the commune.[2] Large forests cover much of the commune but with some farming activity in the north and south.[3]
Tributaries of the Vabre rise in the north of the commune and flow west to join the Vabre. Other streams rise in the east of the commune and flows south.[3]

History
Middle Ages
From the 12th to the 15th century the priory of Saint-Pierre de Canon belonged to the Abbey of Saint-André Villeneuve-lès-Avignon.[5]
Arimondus of Auronis, squire, was Lord of Aurons. He was descended from an old family of knights that participated in the Pélissanne campaign in the 12th and 13th centuries.[6] He must be differentiated from Squire Raymond d'Aurons, co-lord of Rognonas, who was a member of the family of Rostaing de Auronis, a squire attested in 1345,[7] and the noble Pierre de Auronis, co-lord of Aurons, who ceded his manorial rights to Arimondus in court in 1322.[8] He was the son of Hugues de Auronis, the co-lord of Aurons, and had property in Pélissanne where he owned Montmajour Abbey. Aimondus had a son, Pierre de Auronis, alias "Luperiis".[9]".
The death of Queen Joanna I of Naples created a crisis of succession for the County of Provence with the cities of the Union of Aix (1382-1387) supporting Charles de Duras against Louis I of Anjou. The Lord of Aurons, Raymond, rallied to the Angevins in 1385 after the death of Louis I.[10]
French Revolution
A Revolutionary Surveillance Committee was established in Aurons in 1793. It could not recruit the twelve members required by the decree of the National Convention and has several simple peasants and illiterates as members. This institution was a mark of the height of democracy of the Revolution. Illiterate members took part in the debates and in turn occupied the post of president. The committee, who were in charge of monitoring the implementation of laws and making lists of suspects, said there were no suspects in the town which was only populated by farmers.[11]
