WE studied all this week. and today we took the test, we only had a half day today, so our class was really short. 

today we just reviewed for the test. we went over everybody projects.

The Romulus and Remus project is due today.

Romulus and Remus were the two twin founders of the great civilization of Rome. They are the mythological babies that Rome was named after. The famous children are decedents from the Trojan Prince Aeneas. Rhea Silvia’s uncle a banded the children in the wilderness. They are found by a female wolf that cares for them. The brothers grew up, and became leaders. When they got enough followers; the decided to found a city. Romulus wants to build a city on the Palatine hill, and Remus wanted to build it on the Aventine Hill. They agree to fight for were they want the city to be built. Remus is later killed, and Romulus names the city Rome, after himself. He adds citizens to this new city by abduction women from other cities. Finally he disappears under mysterious circumstances. There is no proof for this story, though historians believe Rome was founded in 758 to 728 BC.
