INTERAMNA LIRENAS

This article appears in Volume V14, Page 683 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: I27-INV
INTERAMNA LIRENAS , an ancient town of
Italy
  in the Volscian territory near the
modern
  Pignataro Interamna, 5 M. S.E. of Aquinum; the additional name distinguishes it from Interamna Praetuttianorum (mod. Teramo) and Interamna Nahartium (mod. Terni). It was founded by the Romans as a Latin colony in 312 B.C. as a military base in the war against Samnium, no fewer than 4000 colonists being sent thither. It was among the Latin colonies which in 209 B.C. refused to
supply
  further contingents or money for the Hannibalic war. It became a
municipium
  with the other Latin colonies, but we hear no more of itmainly, no doubt, because it lay off the Via
Latina
 . Livy's description of it as on the Via
Latina
  is not strictly accurate, and cannot be used as an indication that the former course of the Via Latina was through Interamna. The city lay on a hill on the N. bank of the Liris, between two of its tributaries, thus lacking natural defences on the N. side alone. Many
inscriptions
  have been found, and there are considerable remains of antiquity. One inscription bears the date A.D. 408, and the site was occupied in the
middle
  ages by a
castle
  called Terame or Termine. (T. As.)
