Cultural processes and circulation of prestige goods in pre-Roman Apulia. The influences of Orientalizing and the relations with Greeks and Etruscans

Montanaro A. C.

Orientalizing  Etruscan culture  Preroman Daunia 

The latest studies about the customs of the Italic aristocracies in Apulia have added relevant data concerning the Orientalizing period and the phenomenon of birth of the aristocracies between the 8th and 7th century BC. If we focus our attention on Daunian territory, it is very indicative the link that connects these aristocracies to those of the Tyrrhenian area, active since the 9th century BC. Testimonies of such relationships are the prestige goods coming from Etruria and Campania, especially personal ornaments and bronze vases, flaunted in the funerary assemblages of extraordinary burials, some of which they add, to the preciousness of the material, the sophistication of the workmanship and the rare and exotic character
