2 Romulus ( B.C.) Comprehension Questions 1. Why did Amulius put Numitor s son to death and make his daughter a Vestal Virgin? Amulius knew his position as king was threatened by Numitor s children. He worried that Numitor s son would rise against him and claim his right to the throne or that his daughter might bear a son who could challenge him. 2. Why are Romans called a she-wolf s litter? How does this name fit their national character? Romulus and Remus founded Rome. Romans were called a she-wolf s litter because they descended from men so fierce and courageous that they were raised by a wolf rather than a human mother. 3. How did the twins decide who would be king of Rome? The two boys decided they would seek a sign from the gods that indicated which boy they favored. When Romulus saw 12 vultures soaring in the skies and Remus saw only 6, Romulus claimed the favor of the gods and declared himself king. 4. Explain how Romulus populated his city and found wives for the Roman men. Romulus made Rome a place of refuge, a safe place for people running from enemies or punishment. To get wives for the men, Romulus hosted a festival and invited the barbarian Sabine tribe. Roman men seized the women who attended. 5. What good things did Romulus do for his city? Romulus was a fair and wise king. He established a Senate to help him with important government affairs. He also took great care in training young Romans to be good soldiers. 6. Describe Romulus final departure from Rome. What did his spirit foretell? Romulus disappeared from the earth. Legend says that the god Mars took him up to the clouds in a golden chariot. The spirit foretold that Rome would be the greatest city of the world. Activities 1. Draw a family tree (on drawing pages in the Review lesson) including: Aeneas, Procas, Numitor, Amulius, Sylvia, Romulus, Remus. 2. Start your Roman History Timeline with 753 B.C. as the date Rome was founded. 3. Identify on your map (Appendix) of Ancient Italia and memorize: Italy Rome Tiber River 4. Identify on your map (Appendix) of Ancient Rome: Palatine Hill 5*. Discuss how the story of Romulus and Remus is similar to the story of Cain and Abel. In each pair, one brother killed the other and went out to build a new city or nation. 6. Why do you think Campus Martius was so named? Who is Mars? Mars is the god of war and according to legend the father of Romulus and Remus. Campus Martius was where Roman soldiers drilled and armies assembled in preparation for war. 7*. Rome claimed divine ancestry through its founders Romulus and Remus (sons of Sylvia and Mars) and Aeneas (son of Venus). How might this have affected the Roman character? The idea of divine ancestry fed the Romans strong sense of destiny, as well as their famous perseverance and bravery (if they refused to quit, they would eventually win). It also made them empire-builders, claiming the right to rule all other peoples. * Activities throughout the book marked with an asterisk may be given as composition assignments. 7
