Английская Википедия:Golini Tomb
Golini Tomb is an Etruscan tomb in Orvieto, Italy that is dated toward the end of the fourth century bce.[1] It was discovered in 1863. The tombs were discovered by Domenico Golini (from whom the name of the tombs derives). Originally the two Etruscan tombs were called "Tombs of the two chariots" (the so-called Golini I tomb) and "Tomba dei Velii" (the so-called Golini II tomb). Currently the original frescoes are preserved in the archaeological museum in Orvieto, and visible in an installation that faithfully reproduces the structure of the funerary chambers.
The two tombs are frescoed with scenes (accompanied with inscriptions in the Etruscan language) representing the deceased (probably, until proven otherwise; those buried in their respective tombs) and his arrival in Hades and his welcome into the afterlife with a banquet prepared in his honor.[2]
Danish archeologist Frederik Poulsen described the site in 1922: Шаблон:Block quote
Notes on translations of inscriptions
In the first passage, Heurgon takes the second word, Шаблон:Transliteration, to be equivalent to Latin legatus in the sense of "ambassador (to Rome)." Toward the end of the same passage, he analyses Шаблон:Transliteration as "to (-e) those people (-tri-n-) (living along the) Tiber," noting that Шаблон:Transliteration was an ancient Etruscan term for that river, though it could theoretically also apply to Rome itself. The former is more likely, since Шаблон:Transliteration means "water." So the sentence Шаблон:Transliteration might be read: "And he was given (Шаблон:Transliteration (authority over) water (rights) among the people of the (upper?) Tiber" Шаблон:Transliteration remaining untranslated--it is generally translated as 'star' in the bilingual Pyrgi Tablets, but it is not clear how that meaning would fit in this context.[3]
