Virgil is also well known for his twelve books of the Aeneid, the adventures of Aeneas from Trojan war to the landing in modern day Italy. Many years later the legend of Romulus and Remus evolved. According to the story, these two brothers fought and Romulus was victorious. The question I have is if Remus had won the fight, Would the city be called Reme.
