In conjunction with the summer 2004 exhibition at the Royal Museum, this illustrated catalogue gives a fascinating insight into an ancient civilisation of highly sophisticated people. Gathering over 400 objects from the finest collections in Tuscany, it depicts Etruscan life and death, and includes ceramics; life-size sarcophagi and cinerary urns; tomb finds of bronze, amber, gold, silver and ivory; architectural reliefs and bronze figures from temples and sanctuaries.
