Λατίνοι: Διαφορά μεταξύ των αναθεωρήσεων

The Latins were an [[ancient Italic peoples|ancient Italic people]] who migrated to the [[Latium]] region in central Italy, (''Latium Vetus'' - Old Latium), in the 2nd millennium B.C., from [[Central Europe]] ([[Urnfield Culture]]). Although they lived in independent [[city-states]], the Latins had a common language ([[Latin]]), common [[Roman mythology|religious beliefs]] and a close sense of kinship, expressed in the myth that they were all descendants of [[Latinus]], the father-in-law of [[Aeneas]]. Latinus was worshipped as [[Jupiter (mythology)|Jupiter Latiaris]] on Mons Albanus ([[Monte Cavo]]) during an annual festival that was attended by all Latins, including [[Ancient Rome|Rome]], one of the Latin states. The Latin cities extended common right to residence and trade to one another. Rome's territorial ambitions united the rest of the Latins against it in [[341 BC]], but the final victory was on Rome's side in [[338 BC]]. Consequently some of the Latin states were incorporated within the Roman state, and their inhabitants were given full [[Roman citizenship]]. Others became Roman allies and enjoyed certain privileges.
