More than two dozen bronze statues are unearthed


Over two dozen bronze statues depicting Apollo and Hygeia, and more than 6000 coins have been discovered in San Casciano dei Bagni, in the region of Tuscany, 100 miles north of Rome. This is the biggest archeological find of Etruscans culture in the past 50 years. Etruscans migrated to Italy from western Anatolia centuries before the rise of the Roman Empire. Very little is known of Etruscans since almost everything was lost in time, or destroyed by Romans. So this find is great. Is it me but more and more of these stories are popping up these days?
