There are two myths about how Rome was founded. The first story is from a poet named Virgil, who wrote the Aeneid. The story says that a Trojan Hero named Aeneis. He had many adventures and sailing the Mediterranean and won battles and the hand of a King’s daughter. He united the Trojans and the local people and became the founder of Rome.
The second story is about two brothers, Romulus and Remus, who were abandoned by their mother and found by a wolf. Romulus killed Remus when he made fun of the wall he was building. Romulus continued building the city and become the first King.
How Rome was actually founded is not really known. People think that Latins lived in the area around 1000 BC. They groups formed a community and it became Rome.
