 Gubbio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The city's origins are very ancient: as Ikuvium, it was an important town of the ancient Umbrian people in pre-Roman times, and is famous for the discovery there of the Eugubine (or Iguvine) Tables, a set of bronze tablets that together constitute the largest surviving text in ancient Umbrian.
After the Roman conquest in the 2nd century BC — it kept its name with only a slight change (Iguvium) — the city remained important, as attested by its Roman theater, the second-largest surviving in the world.

 Gubbio Project
Before the project, work had focused on linguistic study of the Iguvine Tables (bronze tablets) (discovered in the fifteenth century in no certain context) and excavation in the Roman city.
The successfully accomplished aims of the project were to understand the origins of these historical developments and provide an understanding of the territory.
Interpretation of the Iguvine Tables had suggested precocious state formation in this relatively remote and upland valley.

The authors have developed a multi-disciplinary approach to study the human and physical characteristics of the valley from the paleolithic to the medieval period.
They integrate the analysis of a unique text (the Iguvine Tables) with excavation, field survey and environmental reconstruction to provide a synthesis of current knowledge.
The book has two major focuses: the first is on the Bronze Age landscape where spectacular sites and finds have contributed very significantly to our knowledge of pre-state Italy; and the second is on the identity and character of the early city state of Gubbio and its incorporation into the Roman world.

 Prayer   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
In Graeco-Roman paganism, ceremonial prayer was highly formulaic and ritualized.
The Iguvine Tables contain a supplication that can be translated, "If anything was said improperly, if anything was done improperly, let it be as if it were done correctly."
The formalism and formulaic nature of these prayers led them to be written down in language that may have only been partially understood by the writer, and our texts of these prayers may in fact be garbled.
