CERVETERI – ETRUSCAN
NECROPOLIS - with - EXTENTION TO THE MUSEUM.
The tour can begin
from Rome
or directly from Cerveteri.
Departing from
Rome, going along the Via Aurelia and the highway, we arrive
in the valley of Cerveteri where about 2000 Etruscan tombs
among the most famous in the world can be found. We enter
the necropolis where we find the most important typologies
of tombs from the IX to the II century B.C.
In the Villanoviano
period cremation was quite usual and ashes were put into biconocal
urns inside tombs called “ pozzetto”. Belonging
to a following period, we find monumental tombs, called tumuli
whose hypogeums are elegantely decorated
The visit
can be continued to the National Museum “Cerite”
to have a more complete idea about the Etruscan civilization.
