So if we look at things like the inscription evidence, we can see that Etruscan names survive for much longer in Caere, where they have this softer relationship with Rome, than they do at somewhere else like Tarquinia, which I'm sure we're going to go on and talk about later. where they have a much more combative relationship with Rome. It's very interesting.

So one of the things that we kind of almost skipped over really, I'm talking about this amazing century, you Cervetri is a place where the Romans end up hiding their sacred objects. So they've stolen this material from Veii, but when they are threatened, they send their most sacred things off to Kerate and trust that these people will look after it.

So part of you just, you know, the mind boggles at these things moving around in the landscape in these stressful times. But it's really interesting to see how these different Etruscan cities have these different relationships and to ask why. Is this a personal relationships thing? Are these elite families in these different places that get on better?

Is this a concerted policy where people at Kerry have made this decision? Actually, we're not going to tangle with these guys. We're not interested. We're just going to keep them sweet. I'd love to know what's going on because this is a pattern we're going to see again and again through the Roman conquest of Etruria.

Yeah, a kind of all of the above, really. D, all of the above. I think a really good, maybe a good way to think about this, like a good comparison to go a little bit further in time. It reminds me a little bit of kind of Anglo-Saxon England. This is somewhere very rich, very successful, and everybody wants a piece of this pie.

So if you are on the fringes of this and it's looking a little bit shaky, then you are going to make your move. So in the South, you're exactly right. So in the South, we have Greek colonists pushing northwards. We have the Samnites. They caused trouble for the Romans for centuries after this, and they really pushed the Etruscans back. And we have Gauls raiding the north.

Marzabota, that I've just talked about, that gets pretty much wiped out through Gaulish raiding. They're coming at all directions. And it's fascinating to just see things starting to fall apart for the Etruscans in all these different areas.
