The final decision was reserved for the campaign of 449.

Two Roman consular armies penetrated--the one, under Tiberius Minucius and after his fall under Marcus Fulvius, from Campania through the mountain passes, the other, under Lucius Postumius, from the Adriatic upwards by the Biferno--into Samnium, there to unite in front of Bovianum the capital; a decisive victory was achieved, the Samnite general Statius Gellius was taken prisoner, and Bovianum was carried by storm.
Peace with Samnium The fall of the chief stronghold of the land terminated the twenty-two years' war.

The Samnites withdrew their garrisons from Sora and Arpinum, and sent envoys to Rome to sue for peace; the Sabellian tribes, the Marsi, Marrucini, Paeligni, Frentani, Vestini, and Picentes followed their example.

The terms granted by Rome were tolerable; cessions of territory were required from some of them, from the Paeligni for instance, but they do not seem to have been of much importance.

The equal alliance was renewed between the Sabellian tribes and the Romans (450).
And with Tarentum Presumably about the same time, and in consequence doubtless of the Samnite peace, peace was also made between Rome and Tarentum.
