The twins Romulus and Remus were said to have been rescued by a she-wolf and founded Rome, with Romulus becoming its first king in 753 BCE.

[3] Epics were an early form of oral literature that reflected the heroic ages and spread of Christianity, with major epics including the Nibelungenlied, Song of Roland, El Cid, and Divine Comedy.
