ἄλλοι δὲ Ῥώμην, Ἰταλοῦ θυγατέρα καὶ Λευκαρίας （ οἱ δὲ Τηλέφου τοῦ Ἡρακλέους）, Αἰνείᾳ γαμηθεῖσαν （ οἱ δ᾽ Ἀσκανίῳ τῷ Αἰνείου）, λέγουσι τοὔνομα θέσθαι τῇ πόλει: οἱ δὲ Ῥωμανόν, Ὀδυσσέως παῖδα καὶ
Κίρκης, οἰκίσαι τὴν πόλιν: οἱ δὲ Ῥῶμον ἐκ Τροίας ὑπὸ
Διομήδους ἀποσταλέντα τὸν Ἠμαθίωνος, οἱ δὲ Ῥῶμιν
Λατίνων τύραννον, ἐκβαλόντα Τυρρηνοὺς τοὺς εἰς Λυδίαν μὲν ἐκ Θετταλίας, ἐκ δὲ Λυδίας εἰς Ἰταλίαν παραγενομένους. οὐ μὴν οὐδ᾽ οἱ Ῥωμύλον τῷ δικαιοτάτῳ
τῶν λόγων ἀποφαίνοντες ἐπώνυμον τῆς πόλεως ὁμολογοῦσι περὶ τοῦ γένους [αὐτοῦ].
