Etruscans in Munich

Dear Friends
it was with pleasure that, in coming back to Munich from holidays, I met the Etruscans
http://www.antike-am-koenigsplatz.mwn.de/en/state-collections-of-antiquities-munich/special-exhibitions/the-etruscans-from-villanova-to-rome.html . Contrary to the conventional and deeply radicated view of Etruscan as a misterious civilization, the Etruscans https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Etruscan_civilization developed a dynamic and open civilization, competitive with those of Italy, Greece and North Africa, able to assimilate and rearrange italic, oriental and hellenistic religious and cultural elements. The images, in my opinion, confirm this view. Note that their language is not always understandable in details, but not completely obscure.
Salutations
Giancarlo
