Plutarch tells us that Numa Pompilius was the father-in-law of Ancus Marcius, and that Ancus Marcius was the grandfather of Caius Marcius (/Martius), who had his own section in Plutarch's ''Lives of Noble Grecians and Romans,'' upon which was based a significant portion of Shakespeare's history / tragedy, ''Coriolanus.''

There's a disagreement between the information in this page and the information on the Numa Pompilius page. Numa is the father of Ancus Marcius; on Numa's page, it's stated that Ancus Marcius was murdered. The information there (on Numa Pompilius page) is controversial in the sense that it first says that Ancus Marcius was a popular king, but they later (near the end of the page) imply that he was not as good. The information must be reconciled there and in this page. CarlosRibeiro 11:47, 8 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
