Everything about Antemnae totally explained
Antemnae (
Latin ante amnem, sc.
Anienem; Varro,
Ling. Lat. v. 28), an ancient village of Latium, situated on the west of the
Via Salaria, two miles north of
Rome, where the Anio falls into the Tiber. It is said to have been conquered by Romulus after the rape of the Sabine women, and to have assisted the Tarquins. It soon after lost its independence, and in Strabo's time was a mere village.
The site is one of great strength, and is now occupied by a fort. During construction of the fort, traces of the outer walls and several huts, wells and a
cistern belonging to the primitive village were discovered. The remains of a villa from the end of the Republic were also found.
