Lavici (Latin: Lavicum) was an ancient town of Latium in central Italy, located near modern Colonna.[1]
History edit
In around 488 BC, Lavici was captured by an invading army of the Volsci, led by Gaius Marcius Coriolanus and Attius Tullus Aufidius.[2] The town was taken by the Romans in 418 BC under dictator Quintus Servilius Priscus Structus Fidenas.[3]
