The Sabine city of Trebula Mutuesca, (or Trebula Mutusca) mentioned by Publius Virgilio Marone in the Aeneid, was located in Lazio, in the province of Rieti, in the territory of the current town of Monteleone Sabino, at 496 meters above sea level , on the southern slopes of the Sabine mountains, about 60 km from Rome. Pliny the Elder mentions two Trebulan peoples: Trebulani qui cognominantur Mutuscaei, et qui Suffenates. The ancient site is located in Monteleone Sabino, a village about 3 km to the right of the Via Salaria, between Osteria Nuova and Poggio San Lorenzo. Here notable ruins of the ancient Roman center emerge, including those of a theatre, baths or spas and parts of the ancient flooring. Several inscriptions have been found, some of which bear the name of its people, Plebs Trebulana, Trebulani Mutuscani and Trebulani Mut., which removes any doubt about the attribution of the site.... continue on the site "https://www. romanoImpero.com/2020/04/trebula-mutuesca-monteleone-lazio.html"
