• Sommario/riassunto: The Central Adriatic Apennines (roughly modern Abruzzo) was occupied in antiquity by Italic populations variously termed 'Sabelli', 'Sabellics' or 'Sabellians'. The region in general has received little scholarly attention internationally compared with Tyrrhenian Italy, although the last three decades have been very rich in excavations and finds.
