The history of Pescara begins in the Italic period due to its geographically advantageous position as a hub for communication routes between ancient Rome and the Middle Adriatic area, which shaped the development of the settlement from its earliest days. A maritime village existed along the mouth of the Pescara River as early as the 1st century BC, known as Aternum or Ostia Aterni.
