In this volume the author proposes that in the 1st millennium BCE the Indo-European poetic tradition played an important cognitive, cultural, and linguistic role also for speakers of Italic languages, just as for most Indo-European populations. And this continued until proto-urban aristocratic gentilician élites, activating processes of ethnic self-identification, split the totality of mythopoietic experience, separating religious independence from political, and began to use the different local alphabets as elements of group consciousness.
