Ascanius, the son of Aeneas, was said to have founded Alba Longa and its royal dynasty. This bridged the 400 year gap between the date Trojan War and the date of the foundation of Rome (Aeneas was a survivor of the Trojan War which the Aeneid had landing in Latium and found the Latin city of Lavinium) because the Romans fancied themselves as descendants of the Trojans.

The two legends that describe Rome's founding are the story of Romulus and Remus and Virgil's epic poem, the Aeneid. The legends are too long to be written out here. One legend has it that the Prince Aeneas, of Trojan War fame, founded Rome. The more popular legend is that Romulus, a child of Gods, founded Rome after killing his brother Remus.

In the Aeneid Aeneas, the hero of the Trojan War, was the ancestor of Romulus and Remus. His son Ascaius finded the city of Alba Longa and its dynasty. The twins were the sons of Rhea Silvia, the daughter of Numitor, the king who had been dethroned by his brother Amulius.In book 6 of the Aeneid, Aeneas visits his father Anchises in the underworld, who tells him that his descendant Romulus will found the city of Rome, which will eventually be ruled by Caesar Augustus:

The legend of the foundation of Rome is the legend of Romulus and Remus. The twins decided to found a city in the area of Rome and disagreed about which hill to choose. Romulus wanted the Palatine Hill and Remus wanted the Aventine Hill. Romulus won the dispute and built a sacred wall around the Palatine. A jealous Remus violated the wall and Romulus killed him. Romulus was the founder of Rome.The other "legend" is actually the story of Aeneas, a literary epic poem written by Virgil during the early roman empire. Aeneas was described by Virgil as a hero of the Trojan War who escaped the fall of Troy with the help of two gods. He landed in Latium (land of the Latins) and founded the Latin city of Lavinium. His son, Ascanius, founded the Latin city of Alba Longa and its royal dynasty.The Romans liked to claim descent from the Trojans. Romulus and Remus were said to have been the sons of Silvia Rhea, the daughter of the deposed king of Alba Longa. This bridged the 400 year gap between the date of the foundation of Rome and the date of the Trojan War
