Where did the Etruscans come from (before settling in the Italian peninsula)?

Recent DNA research shows that Etruscans are similar to their neighbors in the Italian peninsula. This means that they mainly came from Neolithic farmers thousands of years ago.

The most interesting discovery is that Etruscans also have [1] a large number of grassland lineages. This is very important, because people always think that immigrants from grasslands brought Indo-European language to Europe. Therefore, this study is a strong evidence against the hypothesis of major grasslands in Indo-European languages.

We are not sure about the "origin of races" because races are cultural, but … they seem to come from somewhere in the eastern Mediterranean.

The mitotic genome from the 1000 genome project reveals the recent oriental characteristics of Tuscans today.

Etruscan includes the area between the Arno River and the Tiber River, which is roughly equivalent to today's Tuscany, West umbria and North Latim. Around 800 BC, Etruscan civilization rose in this area, which marked the transition from the previous iron age Villano culture. The Etruscans developed advanced transportation infrastructure, practiced agriculture in this area, and made famous feats such as figurative art and exquisite metal products. The origin of Etruscan people has basically disappeared in prehistoric times. Since there are no original Etruscan documents (such as literature, religion or philosophy), most of our knowledge about them comes from archaeological discoveries, such as funerary objects. There are two main theories about its origin, which have caused heated debates among experts. On the one hand, the ancient Greek historian Herodotus (484-425 BC) speculated that Etruscans were immigrants from the west coast of Anatolia (a region called Lydia). On the other hand, many modern historians are skeptical about this theory, and many of them believe that Etruscan civilization was developed by indigenous people.

Basically, if you look at the whole genetic research, it shows that Tuscany is very likely, especially people from the Easter Mediterranean, but it is decisive to some extent, because there are Easter Mediterranean people in most parts of southern Europe, and they brought agriculture to Europe!

So they try to determine the exact time ... for example, will their next wave be 3-4 K years ago? It's hard to say.

We can say that Herodotus may be right, but we still don't know. ...

It is now believed that the Etruscans originated from the Italian aborigines, but later merged the races and cultures from Anatolia.

The early northern Italian culture was called Wei 'an. It is a branch of European urn field and Celtic Hallstatt civilization. Around 650 BC, the powerful Greek influence became obvious, and a typical Etruscan discovery was discovered soon. Others believe that the emergence of Etruscans can be traced back to about. In 800 BC.

The Etruscan Center in Tuscany is also called Etruscan.

The meaning of "Etruscan" is unknown, but it may come from the red "erythros" in Greek. This may indicate that there are Edomites among the Etruscans.

Both Rome and Germany have some ancestors of Edomites.

The Etruscan manuscript was found on the Greek island of Lemnos in the Aegean Sea.

According to legend, the first king of Rome was lucius tarquinius priscus, an Etruscan (6 16-579 BC).

The Etruscans allied themselves with Carthage. In 535 BC, a joint fleet of Carthaginians and Etruscans defeated the ships of Greeks and Tarshish (from Spain) near the coast of Corsica.

Therefore, the Carthaginians ruled the Mediterranean.

In 5 10 BC, the last Etruscan king was expelled from Rome.

In 474 BC in Naples, a Greek fleet defeated the Etruscans, and the Etruscans began to lose control of southern Italy.

In 396 BC, the Romans defeated the Etruscans and began to incorporate the Etruscans into their territory in the next two centuries.

It is said that ("Geschichte der Hunnen," -Franz Altheim) discovered the remains of Etruscan settlements in northern Poland.
