Originally allies of Rome against the Gauls (354 BC), they later fought three wars against the Romans (343-341, 316-304, 298-290). Though defeated, the Samnites later helped Pyrrhus and Hannibal in their wars against Rome. They also fought in the Social War and unsuccessfully took part in the civil war against Sulla (82 BC)
