It was originally part of a group of hills that included Collis Latiaris, Mucialis (or Sanqualis), Salutaris. These are now lost due to building in the 16th century and later. The hill was home to a small Sabine settlement in the 8th to 7th century BCE, who built their tombs in the area before their assimilation by Rome.
