A tablecloth was also discovered there, which may have been used during the burial ritual.

In addition, a bronze cauldron was discovered in the burial.

Archaeologists suggest that the found items may have belonged to a family that was considered wealthy at the time.

“We witnessed the discovery of an ancient Etruscan tomb buried in the Osteria Necropolis in Vulci“, the city wrote on Facebook, calling the opening a “day of culture and history”.

Historians say that the Etruscans built their civilization in what is now modern-day Italy beginning around 900 BC.

At first, the people lived on the territory of modern Italy, and later, as a result of the Roman-Etruscan wars, they entered the Roman Empire.

Currently, the archaeological site in the northern Lazio region near Montalto di Castro is one of the most popular tourist destinations.

Earlier, we reported that a golden treasure from the times of the Hetmanate was found in Bila Tserkva.
