The Etruscans were a remarkable civilization in ancient Italy, known for their advanced society and rich culture. They adopted a modified Greek alphabet and were skilled in various trades, including mining metals and crafting exquisite sculptures. Etruscan society was organized into three social classes: the rich, the working, and the poor. They built robust cities on hilltops, fortified with thick walls, and were adept at agriculture, cultivating a variety of crops using innovative tools. Their love for bright colors, music, and dance enriched their daily lives, while their roles as traders and pirates positioned them as influential players in the Mediterranean. ###
