Apiolae

Apiolae (also Appiolae) () was a town in ancient Latium, Italy belonging to the Sabines.

During the early semi-legendary history of Rome, in the reign of Rome's fifth king, Lucius Tarquinius Priscus, Apiolae took a leading role among the Latin cities in a war against Rome. Tarquinius besieged the city, took it by storm, and captured it with great slaughter. According to ancient sources, Apiolae was subsequently razed to the ground and its inhabitants sold into slavery.
