Having been a Rome Fellow in 2018 at the Institutum Romanum Finlandiae, Villa Lante, I visited the Etruscan necropolises in Tarquinia and Cerveteri. Sharing my time with historians and archeologists I learned to accept that we learn from the Etruscan life and civilization mainly from the artifacts of their cemeteries. The passage from life to death is what fascinated me, the idea that after death there is still a journey awaiting.
