The History of Rome is by Roman historian Livy, also known as Titus Livy, who is believed to have lived from 59 BCE to 17 CE. His work was considered the only authorised version of the history of the Roman Republic from its foundations. Livy was a near contemporary of the Roman politician Octavian, who later adopted the surname of Augustus, and became sole ruler of the Roman empire.

∙ 10y agoThe ancient historians who wrote about Roman history emerged around 200 BC with Quintus Fabius Pictor who was the first historians. Some were Roman, some were Greek. Polybius(Greek) wrote the history of Rome in the period of the three Punic Wars in the second century BC. The major writes of the early history of Rome were Livy (Roman) Dionysius of Halicarnassus (Greek) and Diodorus Siculus (Greek). They wrote in the 1st century BC and have been called annalist because they relied on the annals to reconstruct the previous centuries of Roman history.
The main sources of information for the earlier Roman history were the annals and the fasti. During Roman Republic the Pontifex Maximus, the head of Roman state religion, kept the annales maximi. These annals recorded the key public events of the year (hence the name annals) and the names of each officer of state for that year. The Pontifex Maximus kept a detailed record and published an abbreviated version on a white board (tabula dealbata) outside the Regia, his residence from the Republican period onward. The Romans also kept the fasti triumphales, a record of all Roman triumphs in battle, and, in the republican period, the fasti consulares, a list of all the consuls, the two annually elected heads of the city and the army during the Republic. The men who started writing the history of early Rome relied on these documents.
Important historians in the first century AD were Tacitus, Pliny the Elder, Cassius Dio and Josephus (A Roman Jew). The major historians in the second century AD were Suetonius and Appian (Greek).The quality of historiography after this was not as good and there were many writers of brief histories, such as Aurelius Victor, Eutropius, Festus and Epitome de Caesaribus.
