Photo a day - Trend-setting Etruscans



These beads look a whole lot like the ones we saw, appreciated and bought in Ghana. However, they are pictured as displayed in Villa Giulia, a museum of Etruscan artifacts in Rome. Hmm. The Etruscans were around as far back as the 7th century BC, but similar looking beads are still being made today. Those Etruscans sure were trend setters.
