Roman legend tells of a dispute between two warring cities, Rome and Alba Longa. Instead of sending their armies to war, the cities agree to choose three men from each city to fight each other, the victor will be the victorious city. From Rome, three brothers, the Horatii, agree to end the war by fighting three brothers from a family of Alba Longa, the Curiatii. The three Horatii brothers are shown saluting their father who holds their swords out for them. Of the three Horatii brothers, only one survives and is able to kill the other three fighters from Alba Longa. From Ward and Lock's Illustrated History of the World, published c.1882.
