 Alba Longa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alba Longa (in Italian sources occasionally written Albalonga) was an ancient city of Latium, founder and head of the Latin Confederation; it was destroyed by Rome around the middle of the 7th century BC.
According to legend Alba Longa was founded by Ascanius or Iulus, son of Aeneas, thirty years after the foundation of Lavinium.
Grown to manhood and becoming aware of their birthright, they chased Amulius from the throne, which they restored to Numitor: the latter in turn permitted them to found a new city, Rome: the Romans thus traditionally viewed Alba Longa as their mother city.
