Through modern genealogical research techniques, some legends can become historical figures...or at least legends with a sound factual basis, such as Brutus of Troy.
A direct descendant of Trojan Aeneas, Romans banished teenaged Brutus from Rome after he killed both his parents. After his birth, an oracle predicted their death at his hands.
He went to Greece and formed a sizable army of Trojan warriors whom he had personally liberated from Greek enslavement. After reaching sizable numbers, he and his army sailed to Gaul to begin a campaign of plunder and conquest.
Several years later, the Goddess Diana came to him in his sleep one night to show him his new kingdom and how to get there. He and his army presently sailed to Briton and up the River Thames. His first bivouac was at a location near St. Paul's Church. He later named the site New Troy after having conquered the entire island, which he aptly named after himself.

Brutus is according to Ancestry.com my 86th GG as well. I followed only males from my bio grandfather up and it is full of kings straight through.
