Explanation: During the founding of the Eternal City, the two founding brothers, Romulus and Remus, entered into a dispute over various aspects of the city's existence. After leaving the decision up to the gods (via augury of omens), Romulus was chosen (by seeing more birds than his brother) and began building the city. As Romulus dug the ditches for the city's boundaries, Remus mocked his brother's 'walls' and jumped over them. In a fit of rage, Romulus struck his brother with the shovel, killing him.

It definitely ain't gettin' called 'Reme'.
