Thinking Ancient Samnium focuses on the region of Samnium in Italy,
where a rich blend of historical, literary, epigraphic, numismatic,
and archaeological evidence supports a fresh perspective on the
complexity and dynamism of a part of the ancient Mediterranean that
is normally regarded as marginal. This volume presents new ways of
looking at ancient Italian communities that did not leave written
accounts about themselves but played a key role in the early
development of Rome, first as staunch opponents and later as key
allies. It combines written and archaeological evidence to form a
new understanding of the ancient inhabitants of Samnium during the
last six centuries BC, how they identified themselves, how they
developed unique forms of social and political organisation, and
how they became entangled with Rome's expanding power and the
impact that this had on their daily lives.
