Aeneae posteri in urbe Alba Longa diu regnaverunt;quorom unus,Procas,duos filios,Numitorem et Amulium habuit.Numitori,qui natu maior erat,regnum reliquit.Sed Amulius fratrem expulit et solus regno potitus est.Fratris filiam,Rheam Silviam nomine,virginem Vestalem fecit,sic enim sperabat eam subole privari posse.Sed fama est partos a Rhea Silvia esse geminos dei Martis filios,Romulum et Remum;hos iussu Amulii in parvo alveo positos esse inque Tiberim Abiectos.

He left the leadership (the reign) to Numitor who was older (than his brother). But, Amulius expelled his brother and took the leadership for himself. He made the sister of his brother a virgin vestal (a priestess of the Goddess Vesta), Rhea Silvia was her name, hoping that this way he could deprive her of giving birth to descendants. But they say that two twins were born by Rhea Silvia, sons of the God Mars, Romulus and Remus; by the order of Amulius, both were put (placed) in a small trough (ancient tub or vat) and thrown into the river Tiberis.
