The Umbri are an Italic people of ancient Italy.

A region called Umbria still exists and is currently occupied by Italian speakers.

It is somewhat smaller than the ancient Umbria.Most ancient Umbrian cities are settled in the 9th-4th centuries BCE on easily defensible hilltops.

Umbria is bordered by the Tiber and Nar rivers and includes the Appennine slopes on the Adriatic.

The ancient Umbrian language is a branch of a group called Oscan-Umbrian, which is related to the Latino-Faliscan languages (Buck, 1904).
