Much of Italy is mountainous or hilly. In the mountains there were shepperd communities. Many towns were on hills. People liked to live on hills because they were easier to defend from raiders. This did not stop people from forming settlements in the plains.

These regions became focal points for trade, agriculture, and settlement, facilitating the growth of cities. Additionally, the harsh desert environment led to the establishment of nomadic lifestyles, which gradually transitioned to sedentary communities as trade routes and economic opportunities expanded.
