Whilst they were hardly able to bear up under the pressure of this calamity, envoys from the Hernici announced that the Aequi and Volscians had united their forces, had entrenched their camp within their territory, and were ravaging their frontier with an immense army.
The Latins and Hernici reported that war on an immense scale was commenced by the Volscians and Aequi, the Volscian legions were already at Antium, and there were grave fears of the colony itself revolting.
The Hernici and Latins were ordered to furnish troops, in accordance with the treaty; two-thirds of the army consisted of allies, the rest of Roman citizens.

Manlius was accordingly nominated, but, regarding his appointment as due to political rather than to religious reasons and eager to command in the war with the Hernici, he caused a very angry feeling among the men liable to serve by the inconsiderate way in which he conducted the enrolment.
The Romans followed up the fleeing Hernici as far as their camp; but they abstained from attacking it, as it was late in the day.
Whilst the Hernici were defeated and reduced to submission by his colleague, Fabius showed a sad want of caution and skill in his operations against the Tarquinians.

 Livy's History of Rome
The majority of the captives belonged to the Hernici and Latins, not men of the plebeian class, who might have been regarded as only mercenaries, they were found to include some of the principal men of their fighting force, a clear proof that those States had formally assisted the enemy.
During this time the Latins and Hernici, together with the colonists from Circeii and Velitrae, sent to Rome to clear themselves from the charge of being concerned in the Volscian war and to ask for the surrender of their countrymen who had been made prisoners, that they might proceed against them under their own laws.
Many cases were occurring of men being made over to their creditors, and in view of a war with Praeneste, the senate had resolved that fresh legions should be enrolled, but both these proceedings were arrested by the intervention of the tribunes, supported by the whole body of the plebs.

SPURITJS CAssIus, surnamed Vecellinus (Vicellinus, Visedlinus), Roman soldier and statesman, three times consul, and author of the first agrarian law.
In his first consulate (502 B.C.) he defeated the Sabines; in his second (49~l) he renewed the league with the Latins, and dedicated the temple of Ceres in the circus; in his third (486) he made a treaty with the conquered Hernici.
The account of his agrarian law is confused and contradictory; it is clear, however, that it was intended to benefit the needy plebeians (see AGRARIAN LAWS).

In 1838, in company with his parents, he went on his first journey and visited Tuscany, where the innumerable treasures of art completely absorbed his attention.
During the summers of 1844-50 he visited the territory of the ancient Hernici in Latium and also Naples; in this way the knowledge he attained of the period of the Roman Republic was not purely theoretical.
In 1853 he travelled for the first time by himself and went again to Tuscany, also to the Romagna, Lombardy, and Venice.

The history of the towns in Ciociaria go back much further than the Middle Ages, however —even further back than the Romans.
Many medieval structures —such as the cathedral of Anagni— are built on the very sites of ancient structures built by pre-Roman Italic peoples, such as the Hernici or the Volsci.
The megalithic walls of Fiorentini, for example, are from the fourth century, b.c.; they are still well-preserved and intact for virtually the entire perimeter of the city and look as sturdy today as when their Italic masons, the Hernici, built them.

War with the Samnites continued, as 7,000 of their allies were sold into slavery.
A revolt by the Umbrians resulted in their surrender, as did one by the Hernici.
Having helped Rome's enemies after nearly a century of truce and concerned about how the Hernici were treated, the Aequians found themselves at war with Rome and retreated into their cities, many of which were destroyed, stimulating the Marrucini, Marsi, Paeligni, and Frentani to make peace with the Romans.

Rome restored its fortunes somewhat with a victory at Luceria (320 BC), but then saw Capua rise in revolt after a Samnite victory at Lutulae (315 BC).
Finally, Roman victories at Vadimonian Lake (310 BC) and Bovianum Vetus (304 BC) brought the war to a simmering end, even as Rome was heavily engaged in the north, defeating the Etruscans (310 BC) and suppressing revolts by the Umbrians and Hernici (307 BC).
The Second Samnite War saw significant reforms of the Roman military, including creation of the maniple and adoption of the scutum (shield) and pilum (heavy javelin), the later two of which may have been copied from the Samnites.

Rome was therefore always at war, attacked or attacking her Etruscan neighbour Veii, or the Volscians or Aequians, or an occasional Latin foe.
Meanwhile the Hernicans (Hernici), who were a Latin tribe wedged between the Aequians and the Volscians, preferred alliance to Rome (486 BC).
It was a typical example of the Roman motto 'divide and conquer'.
