Art in Ancient Rome
The Etruscan’s were one of the ancient groups of people that helped to make Italy very powerful.This is a fabulous web site that has history and paintings, customs, and maps. ART IN ANCIENT ROME (EUTRUSCAN) http://arthistoryresources.net/ARTHrome.html#Etruscan
When we were in Italy a few years ago, in the
town of Volterra, we visited an Eutruscan museum.
I found this book in the gift shop, and was happy to
see it was written in both Italian and English.
When I looked at the cover, I was amazed!
The author's last name is PETRUCCI, the same as
my mother!
I learned a lot about the Eutruscans from this book.
As you can see from the top illustration of this page, they loved to dance. I do, too. So here's a little information and an illustration of Etruscans dancing.
ACTIVITY: You need: paper and crayons or markers. Draw your family as Etruscan dancers! Tell some stories and make your OWN book.
