Battle of the Cranita hills

Battle in 277 BC

The Battle of the Cranita Hills was fought in 277 BC between a Roman and a Samnite army during the Pyrrhic War. 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 against the Romans on their own.
