Sabines - Sabines (English spelling)

Japanese: サビニ人 - さびにじん(英語表記)Sabini
Sabines - Sabines (English spelling)

A group of Italians who lived in central Italy in ancient Italy. They are thought to have spoken the Oscitan language. The Samnites and Sabellines are a branch of the Sabines. The Sabines, who lived on one of the seven hills of Rome, are thought to have merged with the Latins to form the city-state of Rome. However, the Sabines near Rome are said to have fought against Rome from the time of the Roman monarchy until 449 BC, and were completely defeated by Curius Dentatus in the war of 304-290 BC. They were granted citizenship in 268 BC and became fully Romanized. They are known for their superstitious practices and strong religious faith. Although the anecdote of the "Sabine Raid" is fiction, it is not unbelievable that they merged with the Romans, and their religion and practices continued to live on among the Romans.

Japanese:

古代イタリアで、中部イタリアに住んだイタリア人の一派。オスキ語を使用したと思われる。サムニウム人とサベリ人はサビニ人の一派である。ローマの七丘の一つに居住したサビニ人は、ラテン人と合体して都市国家ローマをつくったとみられる。しかしローマ近辺のサビニ人は、ローマの王政時代から紀元前449年までローマと相争ったことが伝えられ、とくに前304~前290年の戦争でクリウス・デンタトゥスに完全に敗れ、前268年に市民権を与えられて完全にローマ化した。迷信じみた慣習と厚い宗教心で知られる。「サビニ人の略奪」の逸話はフィクションであるが、ローマ人との融合は信じられないことではなく、ローマ人の間に彼らの宗教、慣習は生き続けた。
