	Ancient coinage of Bruttium (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Rhegium (Reggio), on the Sicilian Straits, was in the main a Chalcidian colony, with a dominant Messenian element.
		Rhegium was, however, too far removed from Croton and Sybaris, the centres of the Achaean commerce, and too closely connected with her sister Chalcidian colonies in Sicily, to be drawn into anything more than outward conformity with the Achaean incuse currency.
		At Rhegium, though not at Messene, the hare and mule-car types cease to be used apparently about ten years after the death of Anaxilas, on the occasion of the establishment of a democracy, B.C. Circ.

		Rhegium, a city across the Straits of Messana (later to be known as Messina) was also taken control by Oscan speaking Campanians, who had followed suit after learning of the progress made by their comrades across the water.
		However, it was strange that the Romans were helping the Mamertimes, the same 'race' of warriors that had betrayed Rome's trust at Rhegium and it seemed very hypocritical, and the senate was very well aware of this.
		This only adds to the piling evidence that the war to come was one of self-interest, and not a mind of justice, although the Romans would play it as such.

		The Syracusans also wished to try their fortune at sea, seeing that the Athenians had only a few ships actually at Rhegium, and hearing that the main fleet destined to join them was engaged in blockading the island.
		Defeated by the Athenians they hastily set off, each for himself, to their own stations at Messina and Rhegium, with the loss of one ship; night coming on before the battle was finished.

		When they were sent to Rome the consuls had them all conducted to the Forum and there, according to the Roman custom, scourged and beheaded; their object being to recover as far as possible by this punishment their reputation for good faith with the allies.
