UNDER THE TUSCAN SUN:
ETRUSCAN GOLD AT POGGIO COLLA
The recent discovery of 2,000-year-old pendant necklaces, gold hair ornaments, rings and semi-precious stones, and silver coins is bringing to life a largely forgotten people who, among other things, built the first cities in Italy and introduced Greek culture to the Romans.
In the Italian foothills near Florence,
archaeologists from Southern Methodist University, the University of Pennsylvania
Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology, and Franklin and Marshall
College have uncovered gold artifacts from an ancient Etruscan city. SMU has
experts to discuss the following angles:
