Room 27 - Tomb III

Zoom in to full screen

In this room, the grave goods from Tomb III, dating from the 4th to 3rd century BC, are displayed. The collection is particularly notable for the presence of several red-figure ceramic vessels imported from Volterra, including the krater attributed to the so-called "Painter of Asciano," which opens the "Archaeology" section in Room 18. Also on display are black-gloss ceramics, including a small miniature vessel used for ritual purposes, an iron scratching tool, and a valuable pair of gold earrings.
