Terra X - Rätsel alter Weltkulturen

OPIS

In the 1880s, Tuscan country doctor Isodoro Falci realized from accidental finds that the village Colonna di Boriano could well be the site of Vetulonia, the then still missing last of the twelve cities of the the mighty Etruscan League. That mysterious people, according to genetic research probably not Italic but migrated, plausibly via Lemnos from Asia Minor, possibly originally from Persia, became rich from iron manufacturing. The league's only sea port, Populonia, was key in international commerce. Falci had a hard time dealing with the haughty, aristocracy-dominated archaeological establishment. With his son Andrea he dared an illegal test dig, which hit the jackpot.
