Undoubtedly one of the highlights from this trip was getting to see the frescoes from the Etrucan François Tomb up close in their new home at the Villa Giulia. Stunning scenes recalling Homeric epic. #AncientRome #Etruscan

I fixed a stupid CSS bug and now Open Context is properly falling back to a "noto" font for use with ancient scripts. Here's a nice example of Etruscan, with the unicode getting rendered correctly. It reads (something like):

𐌀𐌙𐌉𐌓

(or less likely)

𐌀𐌙𐌐𐌓

It's interesting because it's written on a fragment of a rochetto (a spool), which is an everyday implement used in textile production.

We still understand little of the Etruscan language.

Although the Etruscans influenced the ancient Greeks and Romans —the Romans even used Etruscan characters to create our current Latin script— we only have limited understanding of the Etruscan language.
