(2) Version del texto in anglese:

According to the legend, Romulo and Remus, the two twin sons of the vestal virgin Rhea Sylvia and of the god Mars were left abandoned on the shores of the Tiber River and were nursed by a female wolf. One day, a shepherd found them and took them to his house.

After they grew up, the two brothers founded a city on the Palatine Hill. To determine who should govern it, they held a contest. Romulus won and became the first king of the city, which he named Rome.

Since there were no women in Rome, to populate the city Romulus threw a party and invited his neighbors to it. During the night, the young Roman men kidnapped the Sabine women.

War broke out because the Sabines wanted their women back. At the end, the Sabine women convinced the two people to stop the war. Romulus and the Sabine king governed together. After Romulus, six other kings governed the city until 509 B.C., when the Republic was founded.

(3) Texto supplementari in anglese:

Archeological discoveries show that in the seventh century B.C. the inhabitants of the Palatine Hill formed a single community: Primitive Rome. The city grew because it was next to the Tiber River, which was navigable up to the Tyrrhenean Sea.

Also, Rome was located between two very rich commercial regions: Etruria and Campania. When the sea was stormy the merchants had to go through Rome to transport their merchandise.

The city was not too far from the sea, and this circumstance encouraged commercial activity in Rome. The Romans took salt from the coastal saltworks and sold it to the inland population, using the road that is now called the Salaria ("Salt Road).

Many people came to Rome from the neighboring regions, attracted by the development of the city. During the monarchic period Rome occupied the land up to the sea and became a famous commercial center.
