Short History of the Etruscans
Of all civilizations of the ancient Mediterranean, it is perhaps the Etruscans who hold the greatest allure. The only direct evidence for studying them and for understanding their culture is the archaeological, and to a much lesser extent, epigraphic record. This is fundamentally because, unlike their Greek and Latin neighbours, the Etruscans left no textual sources to posterity.
Yet they offer glimpses, in the record left by Greek and Roman authors, that they were literate and far from primordial: indeed, that their written histories were greatly admired by the Romans themselves.Applying fresh archaeological discoveries and new insights, A Short History of the Etruscans engagingly conducts the reader through The Etruscans must therefore be approached as if they were a prehistoric people; and the enormous wealth of Etruscan visual and material culture must speak for them.
