Klingan 2 Report post Posted May 31, 2009 Both wrong. The city prospered from the mid 2nd century BC until the mid 1st century BC, but it's history is considerably older than that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I do not think that you ever said it was a Roman colony - thanks you the clue, though! Besides, in 295 BC Colonia Minturnae received the status colonia civium Romanorum, eventually being recolonised under Augustus, who, following a fire in the town, settled veterans in the area. Is it Paestum? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
