A Long Time Ago, There Was a King Named Numitor Who Ruled an Ancient City in Italy Called Alba Longa
A long time ago, there was a king named Numitor who ruled an ancient city in Italy called Alba Longa. Numitor had a younger brother named Amulius who one day overthrew Numitor and took over Alba Longa. However, Amulius did not want to cause any conflict, so he killed Numitor’s male heirs and forced Numitor’s only daughter, Rhea Silvia, to become a Vestal Virgin, so she could not marry or have children. Amulius was worried that Rhea would have a son who would eventually overthrow him. However, Rhea Silvia fell in love with Mars, the Roman God of War and they had twin sons. Rhea Silvia had betrayed her vows of being a Vestal Virgin, and the penalty was usually death. However, Amulius feared the wrath of Mars and did not want to kill Rhea Silvia. Instead, King Amulius imprisoned Rhea Silvia and ordered a servant to put the twins in the River Tiber. Amulius reasoned that if the twins were to die from the elements, the city would be saved from the angry god. When the servant reached the river bank with the twins, he could not throw them in. He looked down at the babies sitting together in the basket, their tiny arms wrapped around one another and he thought about his own young sons. Instead, he placed their basket into the river and let the current carry the basket, in hope that someone would see the twins and rescue them. Eventually, a compassionate she-wolf came across the basket in the river and pulled the babies out to safety.

A BRIEF HISTORY of ANCIENT ROME a Timeline from 753 BC to 337 AD, Looking at the Successive Kings, Politicians, and Emperors Who Ruled Rome’S Expanding Empire
Rome: A Virtual Tour of the Ancient City A BRIEF HISTORY OF ANCIENT ROME A timeline from 753 BC to 337 AD, looking at the successive kings, politicians, and emperors who ruled Rome’s expanding empire. 21st April, Rome's Romulus and Remus featured in legends of Rome's foundation; 753 BC mythological surviving accounts, differing in details, were left by Dionysius of foundation Halicarnassus, Livy, and Plutarch. Romulus and Remus were twin sons of the war god Mars, suckled and looked-after by a she-wolf after being thrown in the river Tiber by their great-uncle Amulius, the usurping king of Alba Longa, and drifting ashore. Raised after that by the shepherd Faustulus and his wife, the boys grew strong and were leaders of many daring adventures. Together they rose against Amulius, killed him, and founded their own city. They quarrelled over its site: Romulus killed Remus (who had preferred the Aventine) and founded his city, Rome, on the Palatine Hill. 753 – Reign of Kings From the reign of Romulus there were six subsequent kings from the 509 BC 8th until the mid-6th century BC. These kings are almost certainly legendary, but accounts of their reigns might contain broad historical truths. Roman monarchs were served by an advisory senate, but held supreme judicial, military, executive, and priestly power. The last king, Lucius Tarquinius Superbus, was overthrown and a republican constitution installed in his place. Ever afterwards Romans were suspicious of kingly authority - a fact that the later emperors had to bear in mind. 509 BC Formation of Tarquinius Superbus, the last king was expelled in 509 BC.

From Small States to Universalism in the Pre-Islamic Near East
REVOLUTIONIZING REVOLUTIONIZING Mark Altaweel and Andrea Squitieri and Andrea Mark Altaweel From Small States to Universalism in the Pre-Islamic Near East This book investigates the long-term continuity of large-scale states and empires, and its effect on the Near East’s social fabric, including the fundamental changes that occurred to major social institutions. Its geographical coverage spans, from east to west, modern- day Libya and Egypt to Central Asia, and from north to south, Anatolia to southern Arabia, incorporating modern-day Oman and Yemen. Its temporal coverage spans from the late eighth century BCE to the seventh century CE during the rise of Islam and collapse of the Sasanian Empire. The authors argue that the persistence of large states and empires starting in the eighth/ seventh centuries BCE, which continued for many centuries, led to new socio-political structures and institutions emerging in the Near East. The primary processes that enabled this emergence were large-scale and long-distance movements, or population migrations. These patterns of social developments are analysed under different aspects: settlement patterns, urban structure, material culture, trade, governance, language spread and religion, all pointing at population movement as the main catalyst for social change. This book’s argument Mark Altaweel is framed within a larger theoretical framework termed as ‘universalism’, a theory that explains WORLD A many of the social transformations that happened to societies in the Near East, starting from Andrea Squitieri the Neo-Assyrian period and continuing for centuries. Among other inﬂ uences, the effects of these transformations are today manifested in modern languages, concepts of government, universal religions and monetized and globalized economies.

THE AENEID AS FOUNDATION STORY Gary B. Miles DEFINITIONS
Aeneid as Foundation Page 1 of 15 THE AENEID AS FOUNDATION STORY Gary B. Miles DEFINITIONS AND REFLECTIONS Foundation stories constitute a subclass of stories about beginnings.' I define a foundation story as a narrative about the origins of a particular human community that is perceived from the outset as one among several communities. In this sense a foundation story is different from a creation story, which I define as concerning the origins of the entire human race. The story of Adam and Eve, for example, is a creation story; it is set within the context of the divine creation of the cosmos; Adam and Eve are characterized by attributes that apply to all peoples: they are masters of all the animal kingdom; they are beholden to God, their creator; their loss of innocence compromises the relation of all humankind to God, and his punitive reaction to their initial sin determines the conditions of necessity under which all subsequent humans must toil. Foundation stories, by contrast, typically focus on the primacy of human initiative and agency. Even when natural or divine powers play a central role in foundations, these narratives are nonetheless concerned with the creation of a particular community and call attention to some aspect of that community's distinctiveness. Several ancient communities, for example, attributed their origins to Hercules. For each of them the identification, generally, with the more culturally "advanced" Hellenism that Hercules represented and, more specifically, with a "hero" constituted the basis for a certain superiority to surrounding communities. 2 More exclusive is the identity perpetuated by the Athenians' idea of autochthony.

Romulus and Remus
Romulus and Remus Long ago, before Christianity, in the fine city of Alba Longa, Italy, lived King Numitor. All was not well in Alba Longa because the younger brother of King Numitor, Amulius, wanted the throne for himself and he eventually took it. I am King AmuliusNumitor andand I tookknow the that throne my brotherfrom my is brother. going to N takeo one my will throne take myfrom me becausethrone from he wants me! to rule my kingdom. Romulus and Remus Amulius was adamant that no one should threaten his new position so, just to make sure, he had Numitor’s sons killed. He made Numitor’s only daughter, Rhea Silvia, become a Priestess of Vesta which meant she was not allowed to marry or have children. Now, Amulius would no longer have to worry that she might have a son who would one day threaten his throne. I am Numitor’s only daughter and Amulius is worried that if I have children, they would take the throne from him, so he does not want me to have children. Romulus and Remus However, the plan backfired, as Rhea Silvia fell in love with Mars, the Roman God of War, and they had twin sons. Usually, the punishment for going against the rules of the Priestesses of Vesta was death but Mars was a hugely powerful man and Amulius feared him. So instead, he imprisoned Rhea Silvia and ordered a servant to take the twins and put them in the River Tiber. These are our sons but Amulius does not want them around as he is threatened by them.

Reading Comprehension-Founding of Rome-Legend of Romulus and Remus Instructions- Read the Passage and Complete the Activities
Name______________________________________________Date__________________________Period___ Reading Comprehension-Founding of Rome-Legend of Romulus and Remus Instructions- Read the passage and complete the activities. Highlight/underline where you find each answer 1 Every ancient culture had a story about its origin. Rome was no exception. The thing about those stories is that most of them, if not all, were just legends. As legends, their reality is in question. The lack of supporting evidence makes us unsure if the events actually took place or not. Though the truth may be lost forever, we should not discount those stories. They give us a theory of how everything began. 2 Here is the legend about Rome. 3 A long time ago, there was a small country called Alba Longa. Numitor was the king of this small country. One day, Amulius, Numitor's evil brother, decided to become king himself. He staged a coup and sent Numitor to exile. After claiming the throne successfully, Amulius turned his focus on Rhea Silvia, Numitor's daughter. 4 Amulius was not afraid of Rhea Silvia. But he was afraid of the children she could have when she married. He thought the children would be a big threat. They could seek revenge and overthrow him. How horrible that would be! 5 As Amulius pondered a solution, a great idea came to mind. He could make his niece a priestess to the goddess of Vestal. As a priestess, she could never get married and have children. Without the children, he would have nothing to worry about. Pleased with the idea, he saw to it right away.
