Casinum

Cassino, Italy

Casinum was an ancient town of Italy, of Oscan origin. The most southeasterly town in Latium adiectum, it was situated on the Via Latina about 40 miles north-west of Capua. Varro states that the name meant "old forum" (Latin forum vetus) in the Oscan language, and also that the town itself was Samnite before the Roman conquest.
