Located in what is now the Italian town of Marzabotto, Kainua is the only Etruscan site whose complete urban layout has been preserved, making it possible to trace houses, roads, drainage systems, cemeteries, craft workshops, and an acropolis.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUnder excavation since the 1850s, Kainua offers a trove of insights into Etruscan culture and society. The volume's editor, Elisabetta Govi, and her fellow experts examine the material evidence underlying our understanding of the history, economy, religion, and social structures of Kainua, including trade routes that linked the city with the wider Mediterranean. Particularly exciting are recent discoveries of sanctuaries dedicated to Tinia and Uni, analogous to the Greek Zeus and Hera, which provide new information about Etruscan cults. \u003ci\u003eKainua (Marzabotto) \u003c\/i\u003ealso draws on the latest research to reconstruct the city's foundation rites, a sacred charter, and urban plan. Finally, the authors explore the site's archaeological history, discussing new knowledge made possible since the introduction of modern techniques of remote sensing and 3D modeling.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Elisabetta Govi\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1477326626\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781477326626\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Texas Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/16\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 280\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.00h x 8.50w x 1.00d","brand":"Elisabetta Govi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44071489339647,"sku":"9781477326626","price":55.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3119e44e-eb18-46b0-b03a-9eb491e25e9c.jpg?v=1685436401","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/kainua-marzabotto-elisabetta-govi-9781477326626","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
