Klingan Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share 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. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WotWotius Posted June 1, 2009 Report Share Posted June 1, 2009 Minturnae? Unfortunately not. It was never a Roman colony (as far as I know). 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
