The work is based on the results of the recent corpus and systematic study of Etruscan funerary painting (Grotte Cornetane 2016; Spazi Sepolti 2017) which provided the basis for the analysis of the rise and specific development of the painted tombs at Tarquinia. Given this analytic and detailed background, in this paper specific references to it will be provided in order to deepen the issues widely discussed by critics with state of the art hypotheses and interpretations. The most up-to-date themes of research on iconography, paintings, architecture and chronological aspects will be highlighted and new points of view will be offered. Among these there is the possibility of tracing the formal roots of the painted hypogea further back in time, and of identifying changes in style and composition of tomb paintings in response to social and ideological developments.

Un team di ricercatori dell'Università Statale di Milano, in collaborazione con l'Università di Cambridge, ha dato una nuova identità a sei dei venti scheletri ritrovati nell'area della Civita di Tarquinia, le cui caratteristiche si differenziano molto dalle abituali sepolture in necropoli, grazie a una inedita combinazione di ricerche statistiche, umanistiche, archeologiche e naturalistiche messe a sistema tra di loro. Lo studio è stato pubblicato su Scientific Reports - Nature

Despite this, the role of monuments in the cultural panorama is still under debate. In this paper the interdisciplinary study about the specic founding principles of the spatial conception
of Etruscan funerary rituals will be explained. The study demonstrates that the qualities that characterise the city seem to be extremely peculiar. This suggests the existence of specic beliefs at the heart of the local design of the funerary space. The paper discuss the choices and the motivations at the root of the formation and development of the painted tombs, considering each local characteristic. For the first time, this brings together all the graphic, architectural and descriptive information: the result is a system of tools created for the specic needs of the district.
As a result, it is now possible to observe the distribution of the hypogea over time, in order to interpret the reasons, goals, social value and role of the monuments within the community.

Long-chain (31, 33 and 35 carbon atoms) ketones were initially detected in the lipid extracts of all the ceramic samples examined, irrespectively of the characteristics of the vessels in terms of shape and texture and of the possibility they had been used for cooking, recognized in several studies as the main cause of the formation of these compounds. Considering that some cases have also been reported in the literature in which the presence of these ketones seemed unexpected for a given ceramic container, it was decided to examine the possible correlation of their occurrence, for the set of vessels examined in the present work, with the sampling mode used to obtain the ceramic powder before extraction with solvents for the recovery of the organic residue. It was thus possible to demonstrate that the use of a drill for sampling, a modality not unusual in this kind of study, can give rise to the formation of these compounds in an archaeological ceramic material in which fatty acids are absorbed, particularly if it contains calcium carbonate, as demonstrated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of the examined pottery fragments. A laboratory experiment based on a fragment of modern pottery in which palmitic and stearic acids were absorbed from a solution, and from which powder samples were then obtained both by drilling and by manual scraping of the pottery surface, allowed to validate the hypothesis above. It was therefore possible to highlight the importance of careful consideration also of the sampling phase in interpreting the results of the analysis of organic residues in archaeological pottery.

In the present investigation, a representative set of bucchero sherds from the excavations of the Etruscan town of Tarquinia (Viterbo, Italy) was analyzed through flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and near-infrared (NIR) reflection spectroscopy. Both elemental and mineralogical composition data were treated with methods of multivariate analysis. It was thus possible to discriminate between local and imported production, to estimate the firing temperature and to verify the origin of the grey-black color in this peculiar ceramic class. Furthermore, a virtual reconstruction of a bucchero vase starting from fragments was also attempted on the basis of chemical analysis data.

The first part of the work examines the results obtained from the archaeological analysis, the concrete implications on the sustainability of ancient cultural landscapes and their possible transmission over time as an expression of the culture of a community. The second part of the work presents the reading and analysis of the ancient landscape and sites through chrono-stratigraphy, especially regarding two case studies in Tarquinia: the 'monumental complex' and the Ara della Regina sanctuary. The work focuses on the intangible aspects of the landscape as a result of archaeological research in the archaeoastronomical field. The orientation of the sacred structures and landscapes is presented herein regarding Etruria and the two case studies. The results shed light on the city's perception by the population, identifying it as an entity that held and sheltered every aspect of the community's life. The preliminary results of this study have made it possible to recognise aspects of significant historical and cultural value, which are the heterogeneous expression of a solid identity to be safeguarded and developed in a sustainable way.

fragilità, all’internazionalizzazione, passando per una consolidata e sistematica presenza, dal 1982, di ricercatori dell’Università degli Studi di Milano che hanno attratto nel tempo iniziative interdisciplinari e presenze da Atenei e Istituti di ricerca sparsi in Europa e nel mondo.
Oggi l’antica città etrusca è minacciata da vari fenomeni di carattere
geomorfologico e dal rischio di abbandono da parte della ricerca sul campo, dovuto alle attuali condizioni giuridico-amministrative che ne rendono difficoltoso il consueto svolgimento. Queste sono determinate dall’Università Agraria di Tarquinia che gestisce la proprietà collettiva civico-demaniale sul pianoro della Civita, ovvero la buffer zone del sito UNESCO (2004) della necropoli delle tombe dipinte. La forza a sostegno di questa fragilità bifronte può venire solo dal mantenere salda la continuità della ricerca che si attesta su una consolidata tradizione e si rinnova continuamente con l’apporto di collaborazioni internazionali, con evidenti vantaggi per il sito UNESCO all’attenzione della comunità mondiale.

Il nostro contributo riguarda i lavori in corso nelle aree attorno
al nucleo centrale del ‘complesso monumentale’ finora reso noto nei
volumi della Collana Tarchna I-III, fondata da Maria Bonghi Jovino
insieme con il “Progetto Tarquinia” nel 19821. Verranno riassunti i
risultati già presentati in contributi diversi, editi e in corso di stampa,
e le novità riguardanti i collegamenti fra il ‘complesso’ e la situazione
del Pianoro nel suo insieme.
