The University Museum's classical collections are among the
largest, most diverse, and most systematically collected of those
of any museum in the United States. Of particular importance is the
Etruscan material, spanning the entire history of the Etruscan
peoples, from the ninth to the second centuries B.C. The strengths
of the Roman collection are its glass, coins, sculpture, and the
excavated objects from the Italian sites of Colonia Minturnae and
the Sanctuary of Diana at Nemi.The "Guide" covers religion, daily
life, language, commerce and trade, and death and burial among the
Etruscans and Romans, and the legacy of the classical world in
Western culture. It celebrates the completion of a suite of
galleries at the University Museum--Worlds Intertwined: Etruscans,
Greeks, and Romans--and is a companion guide to The Ancient Greek
World (1995).
