Translation: Those who are now [called] Romans; for Telephus the son of Heracles, who had the additional name Latinus, gave those who were of old called Cetii the new name Latini. These were again called Italians after one Italus who was ruling the region; but after Aeneas seized the west they were called Aeneadae. All the Romans after him changed their name, taking the name from Romulus.
