Subject: some obscure Roman heroes

In my vain struggle to concoct an intelligent sounding index, I am
trying to discover what Roman worthies a 16th cent. Spanish poet
(Alonso de Ercilla, "La Araucana," Canto 3, stanza 44) might have
had in mind when he mentioned, inter alios, "Furius," "Fulvius,"
"Marcus Sergius," and "Scaeva" ("Sceva"---not Scaevola, whom he
had mentioned in the previous stanza).  The context is bravery in
battle.  TIA.
