Was Aeneas justified in killing Turnus in the Aeneid?
Throughout the Aeneid Aeneas follows the will of the Gods (which is also Fate). Aeneas is fated to kill Turnus, so that the Roman race can establish itself in Italy. It is Aeneas' duty to follow his destiny, since resisting destiny is to resist the will of the gods. Vergil in many ways has ideas which closely anticipate the thinking of the Christians who would arrive a few generations later. The idea of submitting one's personal desires to the will of god is very Christian. (Aeneas does it by leaving Dido, Christ did it in the Garden of Gethsemane).

-aurora -Diana -cupid -venus -jove -dido -Juno -titan What are these roman gods and goddesses in charge of and what are their characteristics?
Aurora was the Roman goddess of the dawn. Every morning, she would open the gates for Apollo to make his daily journey across the sky. She would precede him to prepare the stables to receive the horses, trailing her multicolored veil behind her. Diana was the Roman equivalent to Artemis. She was the twin sister to Apollo, patron of chaste women, hunters, archers (particularly the Amazons), and also served as goddess of the moon (replacing the Titan, Luna... Selene in Greek) Cupid was son of Mars and Venus in Roman mythology. As such, he was the patron of young lovers and unrequited love. Venus was the Roman equivalent to Aphrodite, goddess of beauty and love. Jove was the Roman equivalent to Zeus. Jove is an older name than Jupiter, and Jupiter actually means "Father Jove". He was the head of the Olympian gods, patron of the City of Rome, god of the heavens and thunder and lightning. Dido was the first Queen and traditional founder of Carthage. She comes into Roman mythology because Aeneas stopped in Carthage before he made his way tot he Italian coast. Dido and Aeneas plan to marry, but a previously scorned suitor prayed to Jupiter to have Aeneas sent away. The pious Aeneas complies with the order and leaves. Dido commits suicide after this. Juno is the Roman equivalent to Hera and is the queen of the Olympians. She is also the goddess of the sky, marriage, fidelity, women and mothers. Titan isn't a god, but a generation of gods. The titans were the children of the primordial gods (that is gods who have no parentage, but simply came into existence), and the parents of the Olympians. They are mostly all bound in Tartarus to prevent them from rising up against Zeus and the Olympians.

What was the legend of aeneas?
The legend of Aeneas was a Roman legend. Aeneas was a hero of the Trojan War. His father was Anchises (the price of Dardania, near Troy) and the goddess Aphrodite (Venus). He was related to the king of Troy. He was rescued from death in battle by Aphrodite and Apollo. Aeneas set sail in search for a new land. He stopped in Sicily where his father died, and then in Carthage. He then landed in Latium (land of the Latins). Latinus, the king of the Latins, welcomed the Trojans and allowed them to settle there. Due to a prophecy, Latinus betrothed his daughter, Lavinia, to Aeneas. This infuriated Turnus, the king of the Rutuli, who had been promised Lavinia's hand. War ensued and Aeneas won. Turnus and Latinus died in that battle. Aeneas then founded the Latin City of Lavimium. When Aeneas died, Venus asked Jupiter to make him immortal. Jupiter agreed. The river god Numicus cleansed Aeneas of his mortal parts and Venus anointed him with Ambrosia and Nectar, making him a god. The legend of Aeneas was also linked to the legend of the foundation of Rome. Ascanius, the son of Aeneas, founded the Latin city of Alba Longa and Its royal dynasty. Romulus and Remus were the sons of Rhea Silvia, the daughter of Numitor, the deposed king of Alba Longa
