Wurde Rom tatsachlich 753 v. Chr. gegrundet? Wie aus einer Ansiedlung am Tiber das ewige Rom wurde und welche Mythen und Legenden sich mit der Entstehung der antiken Weltstadt verbinden, dem geht Philipp Matyszak in seinem neuen Buch nach: Von der Flucht des Aeneas aus dem brennenden Troja und der sagenhaften Grundung der Stadt durch Romulus bis zur Verschmelzung von Geschichte und Legende fast tausend Jahre spater. Wie kam der Fluss Tiber zu seinem Namen? Warum wurden Verbrecher vom Tarpejischen Felsen gesturzt? Was hat es mit dem Raub der Sabinerinnen auf sich? Wir begegnen intriganten Schurken und barbarischen Kriegsherren - von denen einer gar meinte, er sei buchstablich sein Gewicht in Gold wert.Einige Geschichten haben einen durchschaubar wahren Kern, andere weisen Parallelen zu Erzahlungen aus Griechenland, Mesopotamien und Etrurien auf und verraten viel uber den mediterranen Austausch von Ideen zu jener Zeit. Die meisten sind schlicht tolle Geschichten, unterhaltsam serviert und mit Quellenzitaten und touristischen Tipps gewurzt von Bestsellerautor Philip Matyszak.
