The Luca Conference was a 56 BC meeting of the three Roman politicians of the First Triumvirate — Caesar, Pompey and Crassus — that took place at the town of Luca, near Pisa. Luca was the southern most town in the then Roman province of Cisalpine Gaul, where Caesar was serving as Governor. The meeting renewed the fraying political alliance, and further cemented the three men's increasing consolidation of power in the Roman Republic. It represented a material re-arrangement in the nature of the Triumvirate. Pompey had lost a great deal of prestige; and Caesar, who had been an adroit political operator and a facilitator of the alliance at first, assumed a great deal of prestige and power within the group. While it restored the ascendancy of the arrangement in the Roman State, it materially changed the relations between the three.
