Liber Linteus, oddly enough, I’ve got something on deck about the Etruscans, there’s a big ‘do’ going on at the Fine Arts in SF.

“One of the most exciting things in the exhibition is the Liber linteus.”

Maybe the best Etruscan collection is in the Guarnacci Museum in Volterra, Italy. Volterra is a beautiful little town on the top of a mountain with an ancient Etruscan archway still intact.

The Liber Linteus is in the Archaeological Museum in Zagreb in a special climate-controlled room (or at least it was some years ago when I visited the museum).
