De nuevo sobre la serie RRC 235 de SEX•POM
Abstract
Within the coinage of the gens Pompeia, the first and one of the most interesting series was made by Sextus Pompeius, grandfather of Pompey the Great, who issued a denarius, dated in the year 137 BC, in which Romulus and Remus are suckled by a she-wolf. Rather than expressing a legendary genealogy, this is related to the internal politics of Rome.
