Overview

English summary: Excavations in the late 19th and early 20th century in the cemetery of the Etruscan city of Vetulonia unearthed many opulent 'princely graves' dating to the Orientalizing period (end of the 8th - beginning of the 6th century BC). However, the cemetery has never been the subject of a comprehensive investigation. This volume offers for the first time an overall picture of the research history, the funeral customs and the material culture of Orientalizing Vetulonia. The study is aimed at recontextualizing the grave complexes and is based on the unpublished original documentation and on the corpus of finds. New insights on the social development of Vetulonia are offered, in particular on the emergence the 'gentilician' society and the phenomenon of the 'princely graves'. German description: Die Ausgrabungen des 19. und des fruhen 20. Jhs. im Graberfeld der etruskischen Stadt Vetulonia forderten eine Reihe von reich ausgestatteten sog. Furstengraber der orientalisierenden Periode (Ende 8. - Anfang 6. Jh. v. Chr.) zutage. Trotz der grossen Bedeutung der Fundstelle blieb eine Auswertung vieler Fundkomplexe aus. Die vorliegende Studie bietet erstmals ein Gesamtbild uber die Forschungsgeschichte, die Grabsitten und die materielle Kultur der orientalisierenden Periode in Vetulonia und berucksichtigt die bisher unbekannte originale Dokumentation sowie das erhaltene Fundmaterial. Die Rekontextualisierung der Bestattungen ermoglicht neue Einblicke in die soziale Entwicklung Vetulonias, insbesondere wird das Aufkommen der 'gentilizischen' Struktur und der sog. Fursten analysiert. Italian description: La necropoli del centro etrusco di Vetulonia e stata indagata in modo estensivo tra la fine dell'800 e l'inizio del '900, portando alla scoperta di ricche sepolture 'principesche' databili nel periodo orientalizzante (fine VIII - inizio VI secolo a. C.). Cio nonostante, numerosi complessi sono rimasti sostanzialmente sconosciuti. Il presente volume traccia per la prima volta un quadro d'insieme sulla storia degli scavi, sull'evoluzione dei costumi funerari e sulla cultura materiale della Vetulonia orientalizzante. L'analisi si basa sull'ampia documentazione originale inedita e sui corredi conservati. La ricontestualizzazione dei complessi tombali permette nuove considerazioni sullo sviluppo sociale di questo importante centro, in particolare sull'emergere della societa 'gentilizia' e delle figure di 'principi'.
