Excerpt from History of Rome and of the Roman People, From Its Origin to the Invasion of the Barbarians, Vol. 1: Section 1
The broad difference between the older school of Niebuhr and that of Mommsen is this: that while Niebuhr Sifts tradition, and tries to infer from it What are the real facts of early Roman history, Mommsen only uses tradition to corroborate the inferences drawn concerning early Roman history from an analysis of the traditional facts and usages still surviving in historical days, and explained as survivals by critical Roman historians. Thus, the usages in appointing a dictator or consul lead him to infer that of old the kings were appointed in like manner, these magistrates having taken the place of the king. Such researches are naturally only of value in reconstructing early constitutional history.
