The '''Lucani''' (''Lucanians'') were an ancient people of [[Italy]] who spoke an [[Oscan language]], a member of the [[Italic languages]]. Around the middle of the [[Fifthfifth century BC]], the Lucani moved south into [[Oenotria]], driving the indigenous tribes, known to the [[Greeks]] as [[Oenotrians]], [[Chones]], and [[Leuternoi]], into the mountainous interior.
 
[[Strabo]] reported that they had a [[democratic]] constitution, save in time of war, when a dictator was chosen from among the regular magistrates. The few surviving Oscan inscriptions and coins in the area that survive from the [[4th century BC|4th]] or [[3rd century BC]] use the [[Greek alphabet]].
