Liternum gained particular fame as the last residence of the Roman general Publius Cornelius Scipio Africanus, victor over Hannibal in the Second Punic War. Scipio withdrew here into political exile and died in Liternum around 183 BC. His tomb is believed to have been located nearby, which gave the town great symbolic significance.
