2,000-Year-Old Etruscan Tomb Discovered

Posted on August 18, 2007 By jim No Comments on 2,000-Year-Old Etruscan Tomb Discovered

Calling all archeology buffs! A 2,000-year old Etruscan tomb in perfect preservation condition has been uncovered about the hills of Tuscany, where a collection of artifacts and other historical treasures have also been found. Amongst the finds, an urn containing the remains of close to 30 people is also part of the unique discoveries about this ancient resting place.

 

The tomb in question was situated in a Tuscan town called Civitella Paganico, which is believed to date between the 1st and 3rd centuries BC. At the time, Etruscan power was suffering a decline in respect, but the wealth of relics left behind is quite regarded.

This chamber served as home to about 80 different objects, including mirrors and vases, as well as other bronze and ceramic pieces. Researchers also became excited when they found urns that held the remains of humans.

This is probably why some of the vases and urns were so small in size. Archeologists believe that these urns were set aside for the remains of children.

 

When it comes to ancient civilization associated with Italy, the Etruscans are known as one of the first and most intriguing groups in history. The inhabitants during this time resided north of Rome, which is now known as the Tuscan and Umbria regions. The Etruscan civilization lasted in history for about 1,000 years, where the highest respect was seen from the 7th to the 6th century B.C. This was the time period just before Roman settlements started to replace the cities in the area. The information surrounding the mystique of the Etruscans come when researchers are
