 Old Italic alphabet - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cumaean, in turn showed strong similarities to the Phoenician alphabet, lending support to theories of Phoenician influence in the West-Central Mediterranean region.
Various Indo-European languages belonging to the Italic branch ( Faliscan and members of the Sabellian group, including Oscan, Umbrian, and South Picene, and other Indo-European branches such as Venetic and Messapic) originally used the alphabet.
It is not clear whether the process of adaptation from the Greek alphabet took place in Italy from the first colony of Greeks, the city of Cumae, or in Greece / Asia Minor.

 Falisci - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It should perhaps be mentioned that there was a town Feronia in Sardinia, named probably after their native goddess by Faliscan settlers, from some of whom we have a votive inscription found at S Maria di Falleri.
This shows some of the phonetic characteristics of the Faliscan dialect, such as the following:
A large number of inscriptions consisting mainly of proper names may be regarded as Etruscan rather than Faliscan, and they have been disregarded in the account of the dialect just given.

It should also identify, but this has not been adequately cleared, the language and the culture of the Osci, one of the most ancient peoples of central Italy.
Oscan, the language of the Osci, is one of the ancient progenitors of Italian language, supposedly closely related to Umbrian, Latin and Faliscan[?].

The Etruscan expansion after 900 BC made Faliscan towns as part of Etruria, though the population was not completely assimilated.

 Faliscan language
Faliscans occupied a small land north and east to Rome and were under Etruscan influence for a long time until their two or three cities (Falerii, Faliscus and Ferentinus) were colonized by Romans.
But several inscriptions and glosses of Faliscan language written in one of the Italic alphabets were found, and practically all of them show the language looked quite like Latin itself.
In the beginning of the AD era, nobody remembered Faliscan speech.

 Summer terracotta course in Calcata, Italy - Metamorphosi
The development of Faliscan ceramics has been attributed by some scholars to the immigration of Greek artists to Falerii Veteres following the Pelopnesian War.
Visit to Narce, ancient Faliscan site where many of the artifacts in the Villa Giulia Museum were found.
The products which emerge from the Faliscan workshops (hydriai, kylikes, oinochoai, stamnoi, skyphoi, aiyballoi, bell-shaped or column-shaped crateri) are of high-quality workmanship, for example the stamnos of the Painter of Diespater, the oinochoe with the Amazzonomachia and the Death of Atteone, the cratere depicting Kephalos kidnapped by Aurora.

Their abundant contents reveal the gradual enrichment of Etruscan and Faliscan art with new materials, techniques, and images brought from the eastern Mediterranean.
As soon as foreign imports and technology appeared in the Etruscan cities, the Faliscans acquired them too.
Their wives were buried with riches and symbols of their own prowess as weavers that show they shared their husbands’ high status and some of their authority.

The urbanization of the town probably took place in this period, with the building of the walls of massive polygonal blocks.
The creation of the municipium shortly after the social war confirms the full inclusion of Ameria into the sphere of Rome.
In the mid-3rd century BC a process of urbanization began, following the opening of the Via Amerina, with the construction of mighty walls made of large polygonal blocks.

At last the Romans succeded in winning the impregnable city of Falerii, razed it to the ground and deported its population some kilometers away, to a new city built in a place without any natural defenses, in the middle of a plateau: Falerii Novi.
The ancient Via Amerina connected Rome to the faliscan region and the city of Ameria (called Amelia at present).

Among existing Etruscan red-figure pottery, Faliscan vases are the finest, according to an article by Professor Safran scheduled to appear in an upcoming issue of the journal Etruscan Studies.
Professor Safran describes the CUA krater “as a high-quality addition to the existing corpus of Faliscan vases.” It brings to seven the number of calyx kraters attributed to a talented but mysterious craftsman known only as the Nazzano Painter, whose work dates to the first half of the fourth century B.C., according to the article.
The CUA vase, which has a long, vertical crack down one side, is typical of pieces made in an area north of Rome called the ager Faliscus.

 Bryn Mawr Classical Review 2000.11.08
This work touchingly considers itself (9, 12) to be the third volume of a once-envisioned handbook of the Italic dialects begun by Emil Vetter's text-collection of 1953 (which included, however, Faliscan and dialectal Latin as well); indeed, JU's dissertation of 1954 was the beginning of the present volume.
Between Proto-Oscan-Umbrian and Indo-European, JU still has problems with the reality of Proto-Italic, which he cannot quite bring himself to believe in as long as he cannot specify its date and location.(10-11)
Physically, the difference between the two volumes could not be greater, the first being small and of flimsily bound post-war paper with tiny margins, whereas this large, sturdily sewn volume leaves plenty of space for marginal notes on its acid-free pages -- a healthy typographical reaction to Vetter's crammed pages.
