History[eedit | eedit soorce]

Perugia wis a Umbrie dounset[5] but first appears in written history as Perusia, ane o the 12 confederate ceeties o Etrurie;[5] it wis first mentioned in Q. Fabius Pictor's accoont, utilisit bi Livy, o the expedeetion carriet oot against the Etruscan League bi Fabius Maximus Rullianus[6] in 310 or 309 BC. At that time a thirty-year indutiae (truce) wis greit upon;[7] housomeivver, in 295 Perusia teuk pairt in the Third Samnite War an wis reducit, wi Volsinii an Arretium (Arezzo), tae seek for peace in the follaein year.[8]

In 216 an 205 BC it assistit Roum in the Seicont Punic War but efterwairds it is nae mentioned till 41-40 BC, when Lucius Antonius teuk refuge thare, an wis reducit bi Octavian efter a lang siege, an its senators sent tae thair daith. A nummer o lead bullets uised bi slingers hae been foond in an aroond the ceety.[9] The ceety wis burnt, we are tauld, wi the exception o the temples o Vulcan an Juno— the massive Etruscan terrace-waws,[10] naturally, can hardly hae suffered at aw— an the toun, wi the territory for a mile roond, wis alloued tae be occupeed bi whoiver chose. It must hae been rebuilt amaist at ance, for several bases for statues exist, inscribit Augusto sacr(um) Perusia restituta; but it did no acome a colonia, till 251-253 AD, when it wis resettled as Colonia Vibia Augusta Perusia, unner the emperor C. Vibius Trebonianus Gallus.[11]

It is hardly mentioned except bi the geografers till it wis the anerly ceety in Umbrie tae resist Totila, who captured it an laid the ceety waste in 547, efter a lang siege, apparently efter the ceety's Byzantine garrison evacuatit. Negotiations wi the besiegin forces fell tae the ceety's bishop, Herculanus, as representative o the tounsfowk.[12] Totila is said tae hae ordered the bishop tae be flayed an beheidit. St. Herculanus (Sant'Ercolano) later became the ceety's patron saunt.[13]

In the Lombard period Perugia is spoken o as ane o the principal ceeties o Tuscie.[14] In the 9t century, wi the consent o Charlemagne an Louis the Pious, it passed unner the papes; but bi the 11t century its commune wis assertin itsel, an for mony centuries the ceety continued tae mainteen a unthirlt life, warrin against mony o the neebourin land an ceeties— Foligno, Assisi, Spoleto, Todi, Siena, Arezzo etc. In 1186 Henry VI, rex romanorum an futur emperor, grantit diplomatic recognition tae the consular govrenment o the ceety; efterwaird Pape Innocent III, whose major aim wis tae gie state dignity tae the dominions hain been constitutin the patrimony o St. Peter, acknawledgit the validity o the imperial statement an recognisit the established ceevic practices as haein the force o law.[15]

Medieval aqueduct

On various occasions the papes foond asylum frae the tumults o Roum athin its waws, an it wis the meetin-place o five conclaves (Perugia Papacy), includin those that electit Honorius III (1216), Clement IV (1285), Celestine V (1294), an Clement V (1305); the papal presence wis characterisit bi a pacificatory rule atween the internal rivalries.[15] But Perugia haed nae mind simply tae subserve the papal interests an niver acceptit papal sovereignty: the ceety uised tae exercise a jurisdiction ower the members o the clergy, mairower in 1282 Perugia wis excommunicatit due tae a new militar affensive against the Ghibellines regairdless o a papal prohibition. In the ither haund side bi side wi the 13t century bronze griffin o Perugia abuin the door o the Palazzo dei Priori staunds, as a Guelphic emblem, the lion, an Perugia remained lyal for the maist pairt tae the Guelph pairty in the struggles o Guelphs an Ghibellines. Housomeivver this dominant tendency wis rather a anti-Germanic an Italian poleetical strategy.[15] The Angevin presence in Italy appeared tae affer a coonterpoise tae papal pouers: in 1319 Perugia declared the Angevin Saunt Louis o Toulouse "Protector o the ceety's sovereignty an o the Palazzo o its Priors"[16] an set his figur amang the ither patron saunts abuin the rich doorwey o the Palazzo dei Priori. Midwey throu the 14t century Bartholus o Sassoferrato, who wis a renouned jurist, assertit that Perugia wis dependent upon neither imperial nor papal support.[15] In 1347, at the time o Rienzi's unfortunate enterprise in revivin the Roman republic, Perugia sent ten ambassadors tae pey him honour; an, when papal legates socht tae coerce it bi foreign sodgers, or tae exact contreibutions, thay met wi vigorous resistance, which broke intae open warfare wi Pape Urban V in 1369; in 1370 the noble pairty reached a greement signin the treaty o Bologna an Perugia wis forcit tae accept a papal legate; housomeivver the vicar-general o the Papal States, Gérard du Puy, Abbot o Marmoutier an nephew o Gregory IX,[17] wis expelled bi a popular uprisin in 1375, an his fortification o Porta Sole wis razit tae the grund.[18]

Ceevic peace wis constantly disturbit in the 14t century bi struggles atween the pairty representin the fowk (Raspanti) an the nobles (Beccherini). Efter the assassination in 1398 of Biordo Michelotti, who haed made hissel laird o Perugia, the ceety became a pawn in the Italian Wars, passin tae Gian Galeazzo Visconti (1400), tae Pape Boniface IX (1403), an tae Ladislaus o Naples (1408–14) afore it settled intae a period o soond govrenance unner the Signoria o the condottiero Braccio da Montone (1416–24), who reached a concordance wi the Papacy. Follaein mutual atrocities o the Oddi an the Baglioni faimilies, pouer wis at last concentratit in the Baglioni, who, tho thay haed nae legal poseetion, defeed aw ither authority, tho thair bloody internal squabbles culminatit in a massacre, 14 Julie 1500.[18] Gian Paolo Baglioni wis lured tae Roum in 1520 an beheidit at the orders o Leo X; an in 1540 Rodolfo, who haed slain a papal legate, wis defeatit bi Pier Luigi Farnese, an the ceety, captured an plundered bi his sodgery, wis deprivit o its preevileges. A citadel kent as the it [Rocca Paolina], efter the name o Pape Paul III, wis biggit, tae designs o Antonio da Sangallo the Younger "ad coercendam Perusinorum audaciam."[19]

In the it [Rocca Paolina]

In 1797, the ceety wis conquered bi French troops. On 4 Februar 1798, the Tiberina Republic wis formit, wi Perugia as caipital, an the French tricolour as banner. In 1799, the Tiberina Republic mergit tae the Roman Republic.

In 1832, 1838 an 1854, Perugia wis hit bi yirdquauks. Follaein the collapse o the Roman republic o 1848-49, when the Rocca wis in pairt demolished,[18] it wis seizit in Mey 1849 bi the Austrians. In Juin 1859 the indwallers rebelled against the temporal authority o the Pape an established a proveesional govrenment, but the insurrection wis quashed bloodily bi Pius IX's troops.[20] In September 1860 the ceety wis unitit feenally, alang wi the rest o Umbrie, as pairt o the Kinrick o Italy.
