About Etruscan
Etruscan was an ancient language spoken by the Etruscan civilization in central Italy, primarily in the region known today as Tuscany, from at least the 8th century BCE until the early centuries CE. It is a language isolate with no confirmed relationship to any other known language. Etruscan was written in its own alphabet, derived from the Greek alphabet, reading from right to left.
Despite thousands of surviving inscriptions, Etruscan remains only partially understood because most texts are short funerary or dedicatory inscriptions with limited vocabulary. The Etruscan civilization heavily influenced early Roman culture, religion, and political institutions. The name "Tuscany" itself derives from the Latin word for Etruscans. Interestingly, Etruscan contributed several words to Latin and subsequently to modern European languages, and some scholars believe the Roman numeral system was adapted from Etruscan numerals.
