It is to be supposed to be the Etruscans. However:
1) it is not a definitely established fact that they came from Lydia in western Turkey.
2) the fashionable theory that the Etruscans conquered Rome has now been challenged. Its evidence base is flimsy and it relies on unproven assumptions. More recent archaeological evidence suggests a different picture. Moreover, the Roman tradition does not say that there was an Etruscan conquest or that there was a period of rule by Etruscan kings. What they say is that the Romans elected a half Etruscan and half Greek as their 5th king following the due process. It was normal for the Romans to elect a foreign king, they had done it before. The historians who argue that Rome was conquered by the Etruscans say that the Romans covered the invasion up. This is most highly implausible.
These historians also rely heavily on the assumption that the Etruscans were a superior civilisation and the Romans were backwards. Recent Archaeology has shown that the Latins had a flourishing aristocracy and great wealth even before the supposed before supposed conquest, that they were involved in long distance trade and that they under the influence of the Greeks from Cumae (near Naples) as well as the Etruscans. These historians also say that the Etruscans were good engineers and the Romans were not. It has now been shown that the Latins, like the Etruscans, also had well engineered irrigation systems. An important innovation in house building was the tiled roof. This was a Latin innovation. Therefore, backwards they were not.
