Grave goods with bronze parade shield originating from the Faliscan territory in the National Etruscan Museum of Villa Giulia in Rome, Italy. The shield dates from the seventh century B.C and documents the influence of the Etruscan on the populations like the Faliscan due to the geographic proximity in the northern Lazio, on the Etruscan side of the Tiber River. The excavations were intimately correlated to the creation of the museum of Villa Giulia. Created in 1899, the Etruscan Museum of Villa Giulia houses works from pre-Roman Italian antiquity, especially from the Etruscan world. Among the museum’s most valuable objects are a sarcophagus from the year 520 BC, as well as several terracotta figures such as the Apollo of Veii and the image of Hercules and Apollo vying for the deer, both from 510 BC. The museum also presents a great collection of precious objects from antiquity to the 19th century.
