New painted grave found in the Eitrurian cemetery-History

In Monterozzi Necropolis, Monterozzi Necropolis in Tarquinia, northern Roman, a unique wall painting grave was found. The history of indoor tombs can be traced back to the 5th century BC. It was the first symbolic Frize grave discovered in Tarquinia in a century. These paintings are also unusual for them: dancing and craftsmanship workshops.

The grave was first exposed in 2022. At that time, archaeologists in Etruria, archaeologists in art and landscapes were exploring the open space in the agricultural field near Takinia. Archaeologists put themselves in the cave to explore and discovered the tomb of Etrusia. They have been robbed by ancient times, but one of them has a hidden treasure in one of the graves: the second behind the left wall of the collapsed left wall, deeper indoor tombs.

The tomb part is full of soil and debris, but archaeologists can still see multi -dyed painting on the wall. In 2023, it was supervised and funded the rescue excavation to expose the grave, and then the plunder came like a locust. They can remove the structure of soil and debris and fix the grave.

“After restoring the passage of entering the funeral room-Daniele Maras, who is responsible for discovery, said that it is now the director of the Florence National Archaeological Museum-once the metal door is installed, archeological excavations prove that all collections are collected The materials have achieved serious goods that are not painted with painted grave. The history of the grave can be traced back to the fifth century BC, but from the end of the Eastern period, it dropped from the upper level for more than a century. “

A unique situation made the archaeologist team test to reveal a series of complex natural phenomena and human intervention measures: the painted grave was deeply dug into the underground soil of the cemetery, under the existing grave. The initial ancient intervention measures passing through a hole on the closed board completely emptied the room of the grave, and then the collapse of the cavity room filled the vase and debris to fill the blank. Only a few lofts red pottery fragments prove the value of the lack of grave in the recent grave.

The left wall is the best preservation. It contains the scenes of four dancers, two men and two women, dancing around a fanatic. The paintings on the back wall were damaged by the collapsed stones, but they seemed to depict a woman and two young men. The right wall was wrapped thickly by chalk coatings, but it was shocking even if the theme was covered. The painting depicts the metallurgical seminar used. This may be mentioned to the myths of Caslamic God. Cexis is the Valcan/Herfistos Islands of Etrusian, but it is more likely to represent the family business of the deceased.

The painted wall is under extensive protection to enhance its visibility and enhance the infrastructure. The team will build a small guard room to protect the passage leading to the room, which will ensure that it maintains a stable temperature and humidity internally, even if it is open to the public. At the same time, analyze the sample collected from the paint and perform it
Advanced multi -spectrometer imaging, this should make researchers have new insights on the original color of the pigment.
