The fashionable theory that Rome was ruled by the Etruscans is just that, a theory. It has been challenged. It evidence base is flimsy to say the least and it rests on unproven assumptions. The Romans never recorded being conquered or ruled by Etruscans. What the Roman tradition says is that the last king of Rome was deposed because he was a tyrant, the monarchy was abolished, the republic was established to prevent the return of tyranny.

This is totally unjustified given what we now know about this remarkable people.I am glad to see that the balance is being set right thanks to renewed interest in the Etruscans, and the teachings of a few dedicated academics.I would like to quote directly an introduction by Professor Graziano Baccolini (reproduced by his kind permission) which I believe summarises quite eloquently the immense contribution made by the Etruscans to Western Society.
