How the Etruscan Culture Was Diffused Into Ancient Rome.
There are 4 features of the Etruscan culture that early Rome adopted as their own.
Things ancient rome adopted from the Etruscan culture:
an arch is an architechtural element that is a half circle of wedge shaped stones with a keystone in the centerto hold together (made up of 2 pillars)
In my own opinion, the cuniculus was the most important part of Etruscan culture that the Romans diffused into their own culture because it was such a major part of their society because water is needed, in any culture, to survive and the cuniculus is a great way to manage it.
The Etruscans had such large influence on the Roman culture because the Etruscan culture was located north of Rome so Rome was able to learn from them and diffuse their culture into their own.
