No, by Roman legend they were the twin sons of Mars, god of war. They were abandoned at birth, and then found and raised by a she-wolf, and then they were raised by a shepherding family. Romulus is credited with founding the city, and in turn the empire, of Rome.
Who founded Rome?
According to the legend, the two brothers that founded the city of Rome were Romulus, and Remus. BUT, Romulus and Remus couldn't decide witch hill they should build Rome on. The two brothers argued until Romulus threw a brick at Remus's head. Remus died and Romulus became the first king of Rome.ROMULOS AND REMUSLegend has it that they were twins and abandoned as newly bornA she wolf raised them.The two brothers Romulus and Remus, Romulus killed Remus and gained control of the new empire. He named it after himself.However the story of them being raised by a she-wolf is a distortion. Prostitutes were banned in the city, and would howl like wolves outside the city walls soliciting custom: they were known as she-wolves. So Romulus and Remus were raised by a prostitute hired as wet nurse after their mother died.Legend says that Romulus and Remus started Rome. This is true but Romulus and Remus were ancestors of Aeneas who led a group of Trojans after the fall of Troy to where Rome now lies. They were said to have been raised by wolves and Romulus killed Remus and became king of Rome. This is of course is a myth.It was really started out of just a village formed where Rome was by the two Italian tribes of Sabine and the Latins in the 8th century. Later Etruscans settled here and turned into the Elite class of Romans. The etruscans later lost power and the originial tribed formed the republic which lasted until 27 a.d at which point it became an Empire.

Here's some info from The Italy Research Guide website:Alba Longa (in Italian sources occasionally written Albalonga) was an ancient city of Latium[1] in central Italy southeast of Rome[2] in the Alban Hills. Founder and head of the Latin League, it was destroyed by Rome around the middle of the 7th century BC. Alba Longa is the legendary birthplace of Romulus and Remus.[1]Ref: http://www.123exp-geography.com/t/18624095328/Hope that helps.In your headline you spelled one of the names incorrectly:it is "Remus" not "Ramus" .(In Latin "Remus" is pronounced ["Ray' mus"] )
