*Some History*
𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞𝐧𝐝, 𝐓𝐮𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐲 𝐀𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐚𝐬' 𝐬𝐨𝐧, 𝐀𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐮𝐬, 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐠 𝐩𝐮𝐩𝐬 (𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐄𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐓𝐮𝐬-𝐂𝐚𝐧𝐚, 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐚 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐋𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐧 𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 "𝐝𝐨𝐠"). Another legend attributes the foundation to one Tusco, son of Hercules and Araxes.
Evidence of human presence in the area dates from the Neolithic age, but probably the city proper was founded in the 7th century BC when the acropolis on St. Peter's Hill was surrounded by a line of walls.In the 5th century AD (or earlier, depending on the source), Tuscania became one of the first bishopric sees in Italy.

There is no record of Tuscania being involved in the battles that led to the Roman conquest of the Etruscan northern Lazio (280 BC), as the city probably entered into the Roman orbit peacefully. The agricultural development and construction of the Via Clodia further boosted the economic situation of the city. It became a municipium in 88 BCE.

In the 5th century AD (or earlier, depending on the source), Tuscania became one of the first bishopric sees in Italy.

After the fall of the Western Roman Empire, it fell to the Lombards in 569 or 574. In 781 it became part of the Papal States. In 967–1066 it was a fief of the Anguillara family and then of the marquises of Tuscany. In 1081 it was besieged by Emperor Henry IV.
