Paeligni
The Paeligni or Peligni were an Italic tribe who lived in the Valle Peligna, in what is now Abruzzo, central Italy.
==History==
The Paeligni are first mentioned as a member of a confederacy that included the Marsi, Marrucini and Vestini, with which the Romans came into conflict in the Second Samnite War, 325 BC. As for other Oscan-Umbrian populations, they were governed by supreme magistrates known as meddixes. Their religion included deities, such as the Dioscuri, Cerfum (a water god) and Anaceta (the Roman Angitia), a goddess associated with snakes.
On the submission of the Samnites, they all came into alliance with Rome in 305-302 BC,〔Livy ix. 45, x. 3, and Diod. xx. 101.〕 the Paelignians having fought hard〔Diod. xx. 90.〕 against even this degree of subjection. Each of them was an independent unit, and in none was there any town or community politically separate from the tribe as a whole. Thus the Vestini issued coins in the 3rd century; each of them appears in the list of the allies in the Social War. How purely Italic in sentiment these communities of the mountain country remained appears from the choice of the mountain fortress of Corfinium as the rebel capital. It was renamed Vitellio, the Oscan form of ''Italia'', a name which appears, written in Oscan alphabet, on the coins struck there in 90 BC.〔R. S. Conway, ''The Italic Dialects'', p. 216.〕
