It is not clear because Etruscan civilisation decayed early on and very little writing in Etruscan has survived. The Etruscans became latinised. Moreover, there is hardly any Archaeology form the period when the Etruscan civilisation was around in Rome.

The Romans thought that the Etruscans had some influence on the early development of their religion.

According to the Roman historian Florus and the Greek historian Strabus, the 5th king of Rome, Tarquinius Priscus who was half Greek and half Etruscan, and was king in the 7th century BC introduced:

• The celebration of triumphs in Etruscan style

• The golden chariot of the king

• The fasces, a bundle of wooden sticks with an axe sticking out in the middle. This was used by the lictors, the guards of the consuls and the praetor. They were also a symbol of the power and authority of the consuls and the praetor.

• The clothes worn by people in positions of authority. The trabea, the robe worn by the king and later , during the republic) the consuls and priests during public ceremonies. The toga praetexta, the robe worn by higher officers of state and the paludamnetum, a cloak worn by generals and their higher officers when commanding an army (but not during peace

The curule chair state officials sat on as a symbol of their authority.)

The faleree, round ornamental metal disks for helmets, armour and harness of horses.

Some ceremonial music

The tubae, horns used for signals in the army

Did the Etruscans conquer Rome?

Although the theory that the Etruscans conquered Rome is very fashionable, it is just that, a theory. It is based on unproven assumptions and it evidence base is flimsy, to say the least. It is most likely that the Etruscans did not conquer Rome. There is no record of it. More recent archaeological finds seem to suggest a different picture.
