the eleventh and twelfth centuries B.C. (pp. 79, 89), and (2) their assignation to the Villanovans, whose civilisation was radically transformed by the Etruscans, who came from the Near East (probably from Asia Minor) by sea in the latter half of the ninth century B.C.

Von Duhn's Italische Gräberkunde1 is an extremely valuable record of all known discoveries in the way both of cemeteries and isolated tombs. The first volume, which begins with the palaeolithic and neolithic periods, carries us as far as the end of the pre-Etruscan period. We may notice a theory (pp. 413 sqq.) that the Volcanal was, in the earliest days, set aside as an ustrinum. The cremation tombs of the Forum are regarded by him as a good deal earlier than the inhumation tombs, while later than the earliest tombs of the Alban Hills. Both works require to be dealt with in far greater detail than is here possible.
