- Good catch. Women in the most ancient Roman times did not have an own name, but definitely did not inherit it from the mother, but from the father instead. So Tanaquil could not pass her name to her daughter. It is indeed a mistake: Tanaquil was wife to Lucius Tarquinius Priscus, but mother to Lucius Tarquinius Superbus. --Grufo (disputatio) 07:48, 26 Novembris 2023 (UTC)
