Death of Remus & Founding of Rome
In response to Romulus’ construction, Remus made continuous fun of the wall and his brother’s city. Remus was so bold as to jump over Romulus’ wall jestingly. In response to Remus’ mockeries, Romulus, angered, killed him. There are several versions as to how Remus was killed on the day Rome was founded. Remus’ death and the founding of Rome are dated by Livy to April 21st, 753 BCE.
