Bergamo (Bèrghem in Lombard) occupies the site of the ancient town of Bergomum, founded as a settlement of the Celtic tribe of Cenomani in Cisalpine Gaul over an Etruscan settlement named Barra. In 49 BC it became a Roman municipality and was an important hub on the military road between Friuli and Raetia. From the 6th century Bergamo was the seat of one of the most important Lombard duchies of Northern Italy.
