  • The Geography and location of Rome
  • Myth of Romulus and Remus
  • Influence of Etruscan engineering
  • Rome is located in Italy, which includes a peninsula and islands in southern Europe. The Italian peninsula is shaped a lot like a boot and reaches into the Mediterranean Sea with its toe pointed toward the island of Sicily.
  • Influence of Etruscan sports
  • A princess gave birth to twin sons, Romulus and Remus. The boys' father was Mars, the Roman god of war. The princess's uncle—the king—was afraid the boys would grow up to take his throne, so he ordered his men to drown them in the Tiber River. However, before the twins drowned, a wolf rescued them.
  • Influence of Greek architecture
  • The Romans became excellent builders because they learned many techniques about engineering, or the science of building, from the Etruscan. Two important Etruscan structures the Romans adapted were the arch and the cuniculus.
  • Influence of Greek art, religion, and writing
  • Romans also adapted two bloody Etruscan sporting events. The first was slave fighting. The Etruscan custom was to stage slave fights during funerals. Two slaves of the dead master fought to the death with swords and small shields. After being congratulated, the winner was executed.
  • Greek architecture was one important influence on the Romans. The Greeks constructed marble temples as homes for their gods. Temples like the Parthenon had stately columns that added to their beauty.
  • Like the Greeks, the Romans wrote in all capital letters. The Romans acquired some Greek ideas from Etruscan art and borrowed others directly from the Greeks.The Romans adapted many of the Greek gods as their own, but they gave them Roman names.
