It is confirmed by several sources and histories that after Romulus Augustus was banished, Odacer granted him an annual pension of six thousand solidi (a senator's annual income), and he retired to Campania, Italy, where he took up residence in the Lucullan Villa, an ancient castle and estate. It is unknown what happened to him afterwards, or the date of his death.
Welsh histories name Augustulus as a brother of Lotharius of Lothian and a foster son to Urien. It is suggested that Romulus was perhaps removed from Rome to the British Isles to be with people who were sympathetic to his cause. And that this Augustulus was perhaps the young emperor. It would have put his presence in England at the time of the Legendary Arthur.
If this is true it would appear that the legends Modron the daughter Apfallon (the Washerwoman of Llanfair) would have actually been an allegorical rendering of the historical tale of the fostering of young Augustulus.
