Dionysius claims that the twins, Romulus and Remus, were born to a vestal named Ilia Silvia (sometimes called Rea), descended from Aeneas of Troy and the daughter of King Latinus of the Original Latin tribes, thus linking Rome to Trojans and Latins both. ^ The Roman Antiquities of Dionysius of Halicarnassus.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-8457.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-8457.txt
