The bronze suckling wolf statue is vintage Roman Empire, hmm sez here actually Etruscan in origin, while the Romulus and Remus are more recent additions (Renaissance Italian). Looks like another legacy from the Etruscans; in high school I first read of them, in an article subtitles, “an historic people who left no history”.
