The Etruscans have always been seen as a distinctive, intriguing and mysterious people. Their contemporaries described them as “an ancient people, unlike all the others”. A people of the earth but also of the sea, with the capacity to impose control over trade in all the Mediterranean, along with the Phoenicians and Greeks.

The history of this people of skilled navigators and refined craftsmen developed from the 9th century B.C. and reached its peak between the 7th and 5th centuries, before gradually falling under Roman domination between the 4th and 1st centuries B.C.

The exhibition presents the historical and geographical framework of the period and shows the wide-ranging contacts between the Etruscans and the other peoples of the Mediterranean. It goes on to unveil all aspects of Etruscan society in its social, political and urban structure, and the customs and habits of daily life, where women played an important role. You can also explore all aspects of Etruscan religion, beliefs, devotional practices and their view of the afterlife.

One of the most intriguing aspects of Etruscan civilisation is the distinctive heritage it bequeathed to the Romans and Antiquity. Long after the disappearance of the “Etruscan World”, their cultural and technological heritage was to have a deep impact on the roots of Rome.
