Who attacked Rome in 387 BC?

In about 387 BC a people called the Gauls attacked Rome and took over they city. Soldiers from the Senone Tribe of the Gauls (who were from Marche, on the east coast of Central Italy) sacked Rome, but did not take it over. They left after Rome agreed to pay 1,000 pounds of Gold. It is thought that they were mercenaries hired by Hierro of Syracuse (in Sicily) on their way south to Calabria (the toe of Italy) to fight there. They were interested in booty and ransom, not in taking over. The date of the Gallic sack is uncertain. 390 BC and 387 BC are two possible dates. Historians tend to settle for 390 BC.
