To add legitimacy to Romulus' leadership. He claimed to have divine blood and overcame hardships that would have killed most people, which proved divine protection. If he appeared to have the favor of the gods, no one would question or oppose him.
Romulus and Remus are important because they were the twins of the legend of the foundation of Rome.
Romulus was the founder of the city of Rome and its first king. According to the legend the twins disagreed on whether the city should be founded on the Palatine Hill (favoured by Romulus) of the Aventine Hill (favoured by Remus). The brothers resorted to augury (the divination of the omens of the gods) to settle the dispute. Romulus claimed he won, but Remus disagreed. Romulus began building a sacred wall around the Palatine Hill. Remus transgressed it spitefully and Romulus killed him.
It gave a heroic beginning to what had really been the gradual transition of a struggling small hill-village to the capital of the civilised western world.
Because it is the only story/evidence of how Rome began.
I think you mean Romulus and Remus, founders of Rome and sons of the god Ares.
On the Tiber River in Italy.According to legend, Rome was founded by two brothers in the Tiber Valley, near the Tiber River, ItalyItaly around 1500BC i think... but i may be wrong...or New York... there are 2 romes in the world...
No, actually we just talked about this in social studies in my sixth grade social studies class! Today, and we actually said that they did come from there and theyb were found by wolves and raised by shephards. Afterwards, I think Romulus made fun of his brother romus and then Romus killd him, and declared himself king of rome, and named the city after himself, Romus and Rome!! And this is all just a legend i don't know if it is true but wolves would not help people, they eat them, so idk what actually happened this is just what i know happened \!
Rome started in April 21,753 B.CAlthough the original dates by Roman historians varied between 758 and 728 BC, the "official" date was set as 753 BC. Archaeologists have found the foundations of ancient Rome's first royal house and the fist temple to Vesta in the area of the Roman Forum. and they had been dated to the mid 8th century BC. The earliest evidence of human settlement in the area has been found near the river Tiber and is date to five hundred years earlier. According to legend, Rome was founded by, Romulus. He and his baby twin brother, Romulus, were thrown into the Tiber in a basket. It landed by the Palatine Hill. They were suckled by a she-wolf. They were then found by a shepherd, Faustulus, who raised them together with his wife, Acca Larentia. As adults they decided to found a new city, but had a disagreement. Romulus wanted to found it on the Palatine Hill and Remus wanted to found it on the Aventine Hill. Romulus won the contest and begun to build a sacred wall around his hill. Remus spitefully trespassed and Romulus killed him because of the sacrilegeThe actual foundation of Rome did not involve the construction of a new city. It was the foundation of the Roman state through the unification of existing settlements, which had been separate and independent, on what were to become the seven hills of Rome :the Palatine, Capitoline, Quirinal, Viminal, Esquiline, Caelius and AventineIt was founded in 753 b.c.April 21 , 753 BC.Roman Mythology:By Romulus and Remus on the seven hills.Historically:By the unification of the surrounding Etruscans who formed a new allegiance and the roman civilization.There were seven Kings and then the republic, followed by the Greatest Empire the earth has known.753 B.C.The date for the founding of Rome is April 21, 753 B.

According to Latin and Roman mythology, was Latinus was the first king of the Latins and the son of Faunus (the horned god of the forest, plains and fields) and Marica (a nymph). He welcomed Aeneas and his Trojans migrated to Latium (the land of the Latins) so they could reorganize their lives after the Trojan War. In Greek Mythology, he was the son of Odysseus and Circe (a goddess of magic) and ruled over the Tyrsenoi, whom some historians think were the Etruscans.
Romulus, Remus, Ceaser, Mark Antony ? I think Romulus was the inventor of Rome ;)

I think the one you're thinking of would be the River Tiber, which is where Rome was situated, and in their creation legends, Romulus and Remus were found and raised by the she-wolf.
It is the myth that explains how Rome was founded.
If you are referring to the famous Capitoline wolf (a statue of a she-wolf feeding the twins), it has been established that, contrary to what had been previously thought, it was not made in the Roman days. Scientists have discovered that it was made High Middle Ages (between the 11th and 12th centuries). The she-wolf suckling the twins was, and still is, one of the two symbols of Rome. Romulus and Remus were the twins in the legend of the foundation of Rome. Romulus went on to found the city and became its first king. The twins were put to float in the River Tiber in a basket. They landed by the Capitoline Hill and were suckled by a she-wolf. Then they were found by a shepherd who brought them up with his wife. The twins survived thanks to the wolf.
According to roman mythology, Romulus and Remus founded the city where they were found as children.
If they thought about their history at all, they thought their ancestors were refugees from Troy. In addition, they claimed the actual founding of the city of Rome was by the twins, Romulus and Remus. In Roman myth, the city of Rome was founded by descendants of the refugees from Troy.

Lupus is the name of the wolf constellation in the Southern Hemisphere, also it is the specific name for Canis Lupus the grey wolf. I think Lupus also means wolf in Latin. Lupin is another of Rowlings semi-latin verions of words, (like her spells, they're almost Latin words) Also Lupin's first name is Remus, presumably from the story of Romulus and Remus in Roman legend: Two young boys raised by a she-wolf, who went on to found Rome and became the first Romans.
No, I don't think it was fair that Remus died. He and Tonks just had a baby and he was really happy.
because when the Romans began to conquere Italy there was a population called itali that lived a bit norther of rome and that land was called italia that meant the land of the itali..it was a quite important population so after Italy was named so.
