Today we started the Rome powerpoint and took notes on it. Etruscans, Greeks, and Latins were the first ones to settle on the pensisula. The Greeks had a lot of colonies along the Tiber River. There were twin brothers named Remus and Romulus and there mom was named Realasiva. She had the twins with the God named Mars, but they abanded the babies in a river to die. The river carried them to safety and a "she wolf" found them near the river and took them in herself. She raised both of the twins and even breast fed them. When the brothers got older, Romulus was trying to make a city but in the process he killed his twin brother so he would win the city. He ended up getting the city and naming it after himself.
