There were two annually elected consuls after the deposition of the kings. The first two consuls were Lucius Junius Brutus and Lucius Tarquinius Collatinus. Collatinus was the husband of Lucretia, the woman whose rape triggered the revolt and the overthrow of the monarchy. He had to resign because of complaints about his being part of the royal family. His place was taken by Publius Valerius Publicola.

In the early roman government who were the consuls?
In the years of the Roman Republic, the consuls were the two annually elected heads of the Republic and the army. Initially they also had judicial duties, but these were transferred to the praetors (chief Justices) when this post was created after 187 years and from then on the consuls only had executive powers. They proposed bills to the vote of the Assembly of the Soldiers or the Assembly of the Tribes. However, in the Late Republic the plebeian tribunes became the main proposers of bills and they submitted them to the vote of the Plebeian Council, which became the main legislative body. In the period of rule by emperors, the emperor took over the Consuls' powers and the consuls' job became largely ceremonial.
