Ecetra
This article relies largely or entirely on a single source. (May 2014) |
Ecetra was a town of the ancient Volsci tribe of central Italy.[1][2] Its location is no longer known.
It is mentioned by
Roman senate for peace, who agreed on the basis that the Ecetran lands were ceded to Rome.[3]
In 464 BC the Ecetrans allied with the Aequi and revolted against Rome. The Hernici warned Rome of the betrayal, and the Romans were ultimately victorious.
