Romulus:
The Epic Continues
Although Romulus had a
number of men in his new
city, he had no women
Romulus finally came
up with an idea.
There was a neighboring
tribe called the Sabines.
Romulus invited the
Sabines to a cookout with
the Roman men.
But during the cookout,
Romulus and the Roman men
stole all of the Sabine
women.
One man
named
Talassius
wanted a
particular
woman, so the
men yelled
“Talassio”
when they
were taking
the women.
The Romans incorporated
this yell into their wedding
ceremony as a shout of good
luck.
The Sabine men were
unhappy about this and
sought to do something
about this.
As a result, they declared
war against the Romans.
