Latinius Silvius (said to have reigned 1079–1028 BC[1]) was the fourth descendant of Aeneas and fourth in the list of mythical kings of Alba Longa (according to Livy). Titus Livius credits him with founding a majority of the settlements in Latium. It is, however, unclear if this person ever existed.
