Product Description

The Rape of the Sabine Women in this context means "abduction". It refers to an event that occurred in the early history of Rome, shortly after its foundation by Romulus and a group of mostly male folowers. The Sabines refused to allow their women to marry the Romans, fearing the emergence of a rival culture. Faced with the extinction of their community, the Romans planned to abduct Sabine women. Romulus invited Sabine families to a festival of Neptune Equester , at which the Romans grabbed the Sabine women and fought off the Sabine men. The indignant abductees were implored by Romulus to accept Roman husbands.
