Pleminius was thrown into a lower dungeon, and there put to death.
45.

In this year colonies of Roman citizens were settled at Puteoli, Vulturnum, and Liternum; three hundred men in each place.

Colonies of Roman citizens were likewise established at Salernum and Buxentum.
The lands allotted to them had formerly belonged to the Campanians.
Tiberius Sempronius Longus, who was then consul, Marcus Servilius, and Quintus Minucius Thermus, were the triumviri who settled the colony.
Other commissioners also, Decius Junius Brutus, Marcus Baebius Tamphilus, and Marcus Helvius, led a colony of Roman citizens to Sipontum, into a district which had belonged to the Arpinians.

To Tempsa, likewise, and to Croto, colonies of Roman citizens were led out.

The lands of Tempsa had been taken from the Bruttians, who had formerly expelled the Greeks from them.
