Romulus

Founder and first king of Rome, twin son of the Vestal Rea Silvia and — she said — Mars; exposed in the Tiber, suckled by a she-wolf, killer of his brother Remus at the new wall, abductor of the Sabine women, and taken up in a storm to become the god Quirinus. Livy tells it with his doubts recorded; Virgil prophesies him; Ovid deifies him.
