From the eighth century BCE, Etruria became a destination on the Italian peninsula for refined works by artisans of the Hellenic regions, the Near East, and central Europe, and for masters from these regions, who emigrated and began to work for the local clientele. These artisans would contribute significantly to the development of an art that was recognizably Etruscan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe influence of Etruscan civilization on other cultures has received less attention from archaeologists than has the effect of the Eastern and Greek worlds on Etruscan culture. This lavishly illustrated volume seeks to redress this imbalance by tracing the Etruscans' impact beyond Etruria. It focuses on the panorama of their commerce and the Etruscan ideological and cultural initiatives that radiated from their native territory into other regions. Etruscan civilization spread across a surprisingly vast area, from ancient Italy out into the Mediterranean basin and continental Europe. The book devotes new attention to details that vary from region to region, with a number of chapters devoted to regional specialists. They offer fresh perspectives on the history, art, and political organization of a culture that, in many ways, remains mysterious.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiovannangelo Camporeale, professor of Etruscology and Italian archaeology at the University of Florence, was involved in the Etruscan excavations in Tuscany for more than twenty years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e317 pages\u003cbr\u003e8 3\/4 x 10 1\/2 inches\u003cbr\u003e240 color illustrations\u003cbr\u003eISBN 978-0-89236-767-2\u003cbr\u003ehardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGetty Publications\u003cbr\u003eImprint: J.
