Person
Romulus
Romulus is the legendary founder and first king of Rome, said to have been suckled with his twin brother Remus by a she-wolf. Roman tradition dated the founding of the city to 753 BCE, told how Romulus killed Remus, and credited him with the abduction of the Sabine women and a shared reign with the Sabine king Titus Tatius. Historians do not regard him as a historical figure.
