Abstract
Some elliptical galaxies possess an extended gaseous disk usually dete cted in Ha and [NII] emission lines. We present here 3D ''Cigale'' obs ervations of NGC 1052. Two gas components are visible. The velocities of the main gazeous component, decoupled from the star kinematics favo urs an external origin of the gas.
