History
The Latin town of Nomentum and Rome were linked by means of the Via Nomentana. In Livy's history the town, a member of the Latin League, is captured by Lucius Tarquinius Priscus. Nomentum was one of a number of towns captured by Tarquinius. The Romans granted the town civitas sine suffragio after 338 B.C.
