A Danish archaeologist at the Ny Carlsberg Glyptotek studies the painted tombs of Corneto (Tarquinia) and Chiusi, comparing the originals with the copies kept in Copenhagen. He reads their banquets, dances, games and funeral scenes for what they say about Etruscan religion, the afterlife and the place of women, which he defends against the charge of looseness.
