- The Aeneid (/ɪˈniːɪd/ ih-NEE-id; Latin: Aenē̆is [ae̯ˈneːɪs] or [ˈae̯neɪs]) is a Latin epic poem that tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who fled the fall of Troy and travelled to Italy, where he became the ancestor of the Romans. Written by the Roman poet Virgil between 29 and 19 BC, the Aeneid comprises 9,896 lines in dactylic hexameter. The first six of the poem´s twelve books tell the story of Aeneas´ wanderings from Troy to Italy, and the poem´s second half tells of the Trojans´ ultimately victorious war upon the Latins, under whose name Aeneas and his Trojan followers are destined to be subsumed.
