Answer:

Historical - Rome was likely first settled around 1000 BC. The first settlement was built on Palatine Hill because it was easily defended. Over time, the six other hills around Palatine were also settled. Mythical - Roman mythology says that Rome was founded in 753 BC by the twins Romulus and Remus. It had much supplies for living beings like food and water!

Hope this helps <3
