 Samnium
Etymology: Certainly from an Oscan-type dialect for the intervocalic f and the presence of o, deriving from an O-grade of the same IE root from which derives Cerfennia.
Likely, it is related to the IE root *bheid- 'to prick, pierce' because close to present-day Vigliano there is the important Sella di Corno, a mountain pass that put in communication the Sabini of the Velinus basin with those of the Aternus.
Etymology: It may be derived from the IE root *rei- 'to flow', and explained from an earlier form *reia-te- with a suffix -te that could have meant 'place by'.
