We have named the kings of the Romans one by one, starting from Aeneias son of Anchises, when he became king of the Latins, and finishing with Amulius Silvius, who was killed by Romulus, the son of his niece Rhea.
To them we will add Romulus and the others, who ruled Rome after him up until Tarquinius Superbus, for a period of 244 years.
After these kings, we will give a separate list of the consuls, starting from Lucius Junius Brutus, and finishing with Marcus Valerius Messalla and Marcus Piso, who were consuls when Theophemus was archon at Athens [61 B.C.].
Altogether, [these consuls governed] for 460 years.
