Cippus Perusinus: photo

Not kept here. This copy isn't ours to show. See it where it's published.

A travertine block found on the hill of San Marco near Perugia in 1822, with 46 lines of Etruscan on its front and left side, dated to the third or second century BC. Read as a legal text, probably a contract or boundary agreement about land between the Velthina and Afuna families; the names, numerals and some legal terms are understood, the connecting verbs and particles are not.
