The Dectunini were a Ligurian tribe living in the hinterland of Genoa during the Iron Age and the Roman period.
Geography

They lived in the hinterland of Genua (modern Genoa), probably around Libarna (in modern Serravalle Scrivia), between the Anamari and the Statielli. They are also associated with the settlement of Guardamonte.
It is not clear how they stood in relation to the Statielli, whether as a peripheral group or as an independent territorial community.
History
The Dectunini are credited with the foundation of Libarna, which could be one of the fifteen Ligurian villages that, according to Livy, surrendered to Q. Minucio Rufo in 191 BC during the Roman conquest of the region.
They are mentioned in the Tavola del Polcevera (117 BC) along other tribes from the hinterland of Genua, namely the Viturii, Odiates, Cavaturini, and Mentovini, in the dispute against the Genuates concerning the occupation of communal land (ager publicus) and grazing rights.
