Roman Republic

A Lucanian delegation went to Rome

298 BC
Roman Republic (Present-Day Rome, Italy)

Early in 298 BC a Lucanian delegation went to Rome to ask the Romans to take them under their protection as the Samnites, having failed to bring them into an alliance, had invaded their territory. Rome agreed to an alliance. Fetials were sent to Samnium to order the Samnites to leave Lucania.
