Abstract
This chapter discusses where and how interaction between Romans and Italians occurred. An important location for interaction may have been the colonies settled by the Romans throughout Italy. Many Italians also lived in these towns, which thus served as meeting places between Romans and Italians. Seasonal migration for work and transhumant pasturing created further contacts between different peoples. Finally, economic interaction also occurred at sanctuaries, seasonal fairs, and permanent marketplaces, which often served as regional economic centres. Furthermore, chapter 2 will discuss non-economic types of interaction between Romans and Italians, especially social relations and military service. This will give a general impression of the type and frequency of interactions between Romans and Italians.

An important location for interaction may have been the colonies settled by the Romans throughout Italy.
Many Italians also lived in these towns, which thus served as meeting places between Romans and Italians.
Seasonal migration for work and transhumant pasturing created further contacts between different peoples.
Finally, economic interaction also occurred at sanctuaries, seasonal fairs, and permanent marketplaces, which often served as regional economic centres.
Furthermore, chapter 2 will discuss non-economic types of interaction between Romans and Italians, especially social relations and military service.
This will give a general impression of the type and frequency of interactions between Romans and Italians.
