The foundations of Rome: From kingship to republic, 753–440 BC
Answer all the questions.
1 (a) Name two of Rome’s kings mentioned by Livy. [2]
(b) State one of the powers held by a consul in the Roman Republic. [1]
(c) Identify one of the crimes said to have been committed by Lucius Tarquinius Superbus. [1]

Passage A
Ancus was well aware that the splendid achievements of Tullus had fallen seriously short in
one respect: the neglect or misconduct of religious ceremonies… Ancus therefore instructed
the pontifex to copy out, using Numa’s records, the details of all the various ceremonies and to
display the document to the public. To the war-weary Romans the prospect of peace seemed
certain, and they… began to hope that the new king was to prove a second Numa… This was the
Latins’ opportunity… and so they raided Roman territory… convinced that Ancus was no soldier…
However, there was more than one side to Ancus’ character; he had in him something of Numa
and something of Romulus too… Hostile peoples were already beginning to test him to see how
much he would stand… Times were difficult, and called for a Tullus rather than a Numa. In one
respect, however, Ancus did follow Numa’s lead, though with a difference. Numa had established
religious observances in time of peace; Ancus provided war with an equivalent serious ceremonial
of its own. It was not enough, he thought, that wars should be fought; he believed that they
should also be formally declared, and for this purpose he adopted the practice… by which a state
demands redress for a hostile act.
