The city it's older than Rome's She-Wolf

The icon of the foundation of Rome, the she-wolf of Capitoline, was handmade in the average ages, not them antiques, according to an investigation in the technique of the bronze-frame of the statue.
The discovery quashes the belief long-that prevails that the she-wolf was adopted like icon by the earliest Romans like symbol for its city.
Recalling the history of a she-wolf that it fed Romulus, the legendary founder of Rome, and his twin brother, Remus, after they had sent them in a basket in the river of Tiber, the statue has always leagued together to the old world.
It was thought to be the product of a factory of Etruscan in 5to century B.C or the masterpiece of 6to escultor Vulca of century B.C. Etruscan de Veii.
It was thought that the Romans adopted more ahead the wolf since their challenging position and raised eyebrows looked like to reflect the liberation of Rome of the rule of Etruscan.
In the opposite, the scholars have settled down for a long time who the bronze figures of Romulus and Remus were added in the Renaissance, in agreement to the legend of the foundation of Rome.
"The now unquestionable tests say to us that also the she-wolf is not a product of the antiques," the Regina, archaeological superintendent of Adriano of previous Rome and the professor of Etruscology in the university of Sapienza of the The one of Rome, wrote in the newspaper "The Repubblica of Italy."
According to the Regina, the analysis made by the restorer Ana Maria Carruba during restoration 1997 of the bronze statue demonstrated that the she-wolf was thrown like single unit. This technique was used typically in the average ages.
The "old bronzes distinguish of those did in the average ages because they were thrown in separated pieces, and then welded together," the Regina said.
First used by the Greeks and immediately adopted by Etruscan and the Roman artists, the technique consisted basically of welding of the separated joints using the bronze like material of the weld.
The new one to date of the she-wolf of Capitoline was not revealed in the presentation of the statue recovered in 2000. The museum of Capitoline, in where the bronze is exhibited, again demands the signs of the illustrations to 480-470 B.C.
The �analysis and the results of the restoration were not made case,� wrote the Regina.
In fact, it can be that it has not been easy that the Romans accepts that the symbol archetype of Rome was thrown in the relatively recent average ages.
The she-wolf was one of the favored images of Benito Mussolini, the facist dictator, who considered the founder of new Rome. He sent several copies from the bronze to the American cities.
The she-wolf of Capitoline also was used in the poster of the Olympic Games 1960 of Rome and is one of the most popular articles between salesmen of the memory in Rome.
The guard of Gregory, professor of the history of the art in southern the Methodist university that specializes in bronzes of Etruscan, found the suggestion that the she-wolf can be "to captivate medieval". But, he does not consider the matter closed.
"Whereas the statue is singular, and thus difficult to compare to the other Etruscan statuary, I do not think that the technical discussion is completely persuasiva, since we have so little comparative evidence for the bronze frame in great in the world of Etruscan,� he said. �We cannot certainly assume that the techniques of the bronze-frame of Etruscan would have been always identical to those of the Greeks.�
