ETRUSCAN SOUVENIR

While touring around Tuscany I came across many Etruscan historical sites and museum displays.  The Etruscan civilization flourished between 800 and 500 BC, preceding the Romans and giving Tuscany its name.  The Etruscans admired Grecian Black-figure pottery so much, that they started making it themselves.  And so begins the long line that brings us to this souvenir vase.  What I like is that, although it's a copy of something that's been recreated ad infinitum, it was probably made using the same techniques as a thousands of years ago.  That is, aside from the glued on sand to make the vase look freshly excavated.  When and where is this souvenir from:  a tourist shop celebrating a tomb found in the 1980s, a museum gift shop from the1970s, or a market stall from the 1890s?  At 15 EU from a back-alley antiques market it doesn't really matter, it's a nice reminder of a beautiful land, its rolling hills untouched by history.
