The history of Sutri (formerly Sutrium) is testified by the numerous archaeological finds in the area belonging to different eras. Its origins are very ancient, probably dating back to the Bronze Age.

Its foundation is, according to legend, to be attributed to an ancient people of oriental navigators, the Pelasgians.

Other legends speak of the foundation by Saturn, who appears on horseback with three ears of wheat in his hand in the official coat of arms of the municipality.
