Trebula Balliensis was an ancient city of Campania, now the village of Treglia in Pontelatone, Province of Caserta. First mentioned in 303 BC when the Trebulani received Roman citizenship. Cicero cited the fertile Trebulanus ager as land Servilius Rullus proposed distributing to poorer citizens, and Pliny noted its wines had rapidly risen in reputation. Archaeological remains include over 2.5 km of Samnite polygonal walls with a megalithic gate exceeding 5 m in height, Roman baths, a Heroon (founder's temple-tomb), and a bucchero pottery kiln. Systematic excavations began in 2007.
