The Ancient Etruscan People of Tuscany Recci
7 Day Ancient Sites Tour
The Greeks and Phoenicians took to the seas in search of trade in the first couple of centuries BC and were amazed to find a pre-existing advanced civilization in the area now known as Tuscany. These Etruscan people were keen to trade and through this they developed into a rich and sophisticated society that went on to found many cities including Rome, which eventually grew to become their nemesis.
On this tour we will be visiting the amazing artifacts left to us by the ancient Etuscans including massive carved tombs, some decorated with beautiful murals, incredible sarcophagi, intricately made pottery, jewellery, ornaments and magnificent polygonal city walls.
