Spurius Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 "ROME (Reuters) - Archaelogists have discovered a more than 2,000-year-old Etruscan tomb perfectly preserved in the hills of Tuscany with a treasure trove of artifacts inside, including urns that hold the remains of about 30 people." Story link right here. Though this is long after their height of power, this tomb should bear some great doctoral research in the upcoming years.

Segestan Posted August 13, 2007 Report Share Posted August 13, 2007 Very exciting. Would be nice to find some written text or musical notes in an Etruscan and even Roman tomb. But whatever was placed in this tomb very exciting finds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursus Posted August 14, 2007 Report Share Posted August 14, 2007 Excellent. Didn't they discover the federal sanctuary for the Etruscans not long ago? The discoveries keep mounting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
