The Italian capital Rome, now known as the “Eternal City” or “Eternal City,” is celebrating its 2773th birthday today, April 21st. According to Roman legend, the city was built by Romolo on the Palatine Hill in 753 BC. Legend has it that Romolo and Remo, the twin brothers of Rhea Sylvia and the Goddess of Mars, were abandoned by their mother on the Tiber River, then a wolf, and later, a shepherd named Faustolo and his wife.
In addition, the legend states that Romolo killed his twin brother during a dispute over the city’s construction, and later, saddened by his work, the city he designed was named “Roma” in memory of his brother Remo.
According to another tradition, the River Tiber was known as ‘Rumon’ in the Etruscan language, from which the city got its name. Another tradition states that Rome got its name from the wolf that is said to have fed Romolo and Remo. Because the breast was called ‘Ruma’ in Etruscan. The statue in Rome, designed to mimic the twin brothers as a wolf, is widely regarded as a monument to Roman history. AS is the home of the famous Italian football club in Rome. The flag of Rome also features the wolf and the Romolo-Remo brothers.
If you look at the history of the world, you can see that besides Rome, the city of Israel in Jerusalem and the city of Kyoto in Japan were known as the “city of righteousness”.
Only Rome, however, still retains that name. The Latin poet Albio Tibullo’s famous work, Le Elegia, writes, “Romulus Aeternae nondum formaverat Urbis moenia”, which literally translates as … “Romulus raised the walls of the eternal city”. This is shown by the fact that Romulus built the Roman city. But over the years, there have been many debates and disputes about the origin of this statement.
However, some of the evidence from excavations and excavations at the Palatine Hill in Rome validate the 7th century BC construction of the city.
Long years later, on April 21, 1870, Rome’s birthday celebrations again became popular. Every year, on the afternoon of April 21, the bell of the tower at Camp de Oolio in Rome is heard. The city still stands today, where many of the monuments of architecture and architecture, such as the Colosseum and Pantheon, the remnants of the Roman Empire are still standing, hiding within the Vatican City, the center of the Catholic Church, with fountains Thousands of tourists have flocked to Rome for the birthday of Rome, popularly known as the city of the bishop of Italy and the capital city of Italy.
But this year, in fear of coronavirus and the cancellation of all celebrations except the one broadcast by the media, the mayor of Rome and Virginia Rajji added: “We want to send a message of hope and courage: together we can do it. Rome and Italy have gone through many hardships and we can overcome this difficult moment ”.
