- Battle_of_the_Cranita_hills abstract "The Battle of the Cranita hills was fought on 277 BC between a Roman and a Samnite army during the Pyrrhic War (280-275 BC). The Samnite people allied with King Pyrrhus of Epirus against the Roman Republic to regain the independence that they had lost during the Roman Samnite wars, but when Pyrrhus left Italy in 278 BC for Sicily, Pyrrhus' Italian allies were left to defend from the Romans on their own.In 277, the consuls Publius Cornelius Rufinus and Caius Junius Bubulcus, invaded Samnium devastating the country as they went along, and took several deserted forts. The Samnites had retreated to a range of hills called Cranita, because of the large growth cornel-wood (crania) they bore, where they had conveyed their most valuable treasures. Despite the difficulty of the terrain the Romans ascended the hills but the shrubbery that tangled the hills, and the difficult step they had to climb made the Romans easy prey for the Samnite attack which killed and took many prisoners.After their defeat at the Cranita hills, both Roman consuls blamed each other for the debacle and no longer worked together. Junius went on ravaging a portion of Samnium, while Rufinus campaigned against the Lucanians and Bruttians and captured Croton.".
