Italian archaeologists believe they have found the cave where, according to legend, a wolf suckled Romulus and Remus, the twin founders of Rome.
An underground cavity decorated with seashells, mosaics and pumice stones was discovered near the ruins of the palace of Emperor Augustus on the Palatine hill.
Experts say they are “reasonably certain” it is the long-lost place of worship sacred to ancient Romans and known as Lupercale, from the Latin word for wolf.
