Latins (Italic tribe)
The Latins (or Latini) were a people of ancient Italy who included the inhabitants of the early City of Rome. From ca. 1000 BC, the Latins inhabited the small part of the peninsula known to the Romans as Old Latium (Latium Vetus), that is, the region between the river Tiber and the promontory of Monte Circeo (ca. 60 mi or 100 km SE of Rome).
