| Alba Longa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (456 words) |
| Alba Longa (in Italian sources occasionally written Albalonga) was an ancient city of Latium, founder and head of the Latin Confederation; it was destroyed by Rome around the middle of the 7th century BC. |
| According to legend Alba Longa was founded by Ascanius or Iulus, son of Aeneas, thirty years after the foundation of Lavinium. |
| Grown to manhood and becoming aware of their birthright, they chased Amulius from the throne, which they restored to Numitor: the latter in turn permitted them to found a new city, Rome: the Romans thus traditionally viewed Alba Longa as their mother city. |
