The late sixth century was a period of considerable change in
Etruria; this change is traditionally seen as the adoption of
superior models from Greece. In a radical re-alignment of agency,
this book examines a wide range of Etruscan material culture -
mirrors, tombs, sanctuaries, houses and cities - in order to
demonstrate the importance of local concerns in the formation of
Etruscan material culture. Drawing on recent theoretical
developments, the book emphasises the deliberate nature of the
smallest of changes in material culture form, and develops the
concept of surface as a unifying key to understanding the changes
in the ways Etruscans represented themselves in life and death.
This concept allows a uniquely holistic approach to the archaeology
of Etruscan society and has the potential for other archaeological
investigations. The book will interest all scholars and students of
classical archaeology.
