An archaic heraldic sign is the presence of the Oil Tower on the walls of Spoleto. According to tradition, it is from this tower that boiling oil was poured down on the army of Hannibal who, after his victory at Trasimeno, tried to take over the town, his original initial intention being that of marching on Rome; dissuaded by the resistance he encountered at Spoleto, Hannibal decided to change plans and headed, instead, toward the Piceno area.
