In the Aeneid, Aeneas, a hero of the Trojan War, landed in Lavinium, in Latium (land of the Latins) and was welcomed by Latinus, the king of the Latins. His son Ascanius founded the city of Alba Longa and its Royal dynasty. Romulus and Remus were the sons of Rhea Silvia, the daughter of Numitor, the king of Alba Longa who had been deposed by his bother, Amulius. Romulus and Remus were the twins of the legend of the foundation of Rome. The two legends made them the descendants of Aeneas.
