Historical background


ITALY - TRANSPADANE AREA - CELTO-LIGURIANS

(3rd - 2nd century BC)

The Celto-Ligurians, with coins in the Lepontic alphabet, settled in the 6th or 5th century BC in Transpadane, which would later become Cisalpine Gaul. From the end of the 4th century BC, they were in contact with Rome. The Gauls crush the Romans on the Allia on July 18, 387 BC and Brennus takes Rome, (Væ victis!) after a long siege, despite the resistance of the Capitoline fortress (the geese consecrated to Juno Monere ( Moneta) warned the Romans of the danger). The war resumed a century later between 285 and 282 BC Rome remained mistress of Central Italy. After the victory of Clastidium in 222 BC, the Romans seized Mediolanum (Milan). They submit the Boii and the Insubrians after taking Bologna and impose colonies of Roman citizens in Cremona, Piacenza and Modena. The Romans begin the construction of via Flaminia.
