Abstract

The aim of this contribution addresses the perception of textile production in the Etruscan society and makes a change in the analysis of the particular functions that each object fulfils within technical procedures. It stems from the assessment of an existing link between semantic scopes that are only apparently different – textile production, writing, religion – in which women undertake roles that are complementary to men’s (Bagnasco Gianni 1999; forthcoming). Evidence unearthed at Tarquinia by the Università degli Studi di Milano during current excavation at the ‘monumental complex’, and by the Soprintendenza Archeologica per l’Etruria meridionale in the Monterozzi necropolis during the 1980s, provide a number of elements supporting this argument.
