About this ebook

 Like most civilizations Rome too has a myth in its finding. The city was founded by two brothers Romulus and Remus who were twin sons of Rhea Silvia the daughter of Latin King Numitor. It is said that Rhea was made pregnant by the Roman God of War, Mars which made the twins half human and half divine. Threatened by the existence King Amulius had them thrown in water but were saved brought up by a she-wolf. Some say that a shepherdess saved them and brought them up as her children who later grew up to have returned Numitor(their grandfather) his throne. The twins then founded of what we know as Rome. A quarrel among the brothers left Remus dead while Romulus became its ruler. Rome was named after Romulus.
