"Eutropius" by Eutropius is a historical account written in the early 4th century. This work, known as the "Breviarium," offers a concise outline of Roman history from the founding of the city until the death of Emperor Jovian in 364 A.D. The author aims to provide students and scholars with an accessible summary of important events and figures in Roman history, emphasizing its educational value. At the start of "Eutropius," the text
introduces the foundational legends of Rome, beginning with the story of Romulus, the city's mythical founder. It details the early kings of Rome, their significant actions, and the establishment of the Republic, addressing key events and figures such as Numa Pompilius and Tarquin the Proud.
