Tarquinia was founded by the Etruscans centuries BC and they left behind a whole region of their tombs with their painted walls depicting their way of life and burial. Splendid. In the town there's a wonderful museum in a palace that's well stocked with sarcophagi , carvings, tombs and the objects that they made ranging from urns, everyday utensils, jewellery, pots and articles that were buried with the remains of the dead. It's situated only ten kms from the coast
