Ver sacrum ("sacred spring") is a religious practice of ancient Italic peoples, especially the Sabelli[1] (or Sabini[2]) and their offshoot Samnites, concerning the deduction of colonies. It was of special interest to Georges Dumézil, according to whom the ver sacrum perpetuated prehistoric migration practices of Indo-Europeans to the end of the Iron Age and into the beginnings of history, when stable sedentary dwelling conditions had already become general.
