Etruscan all-nighter at Marzabotto

 Notte magica nella città di Kainua. Aspettando il solstizio in compagnia degli Etruschi
A bit more than midnight at the museum...a guided tour of the site at 6 PM, then dinner with dishes "taken from the Etruscan tradition" (no word on whether couches are involved, but presumably this event will be co-ed), the museum at midnight, a lecture on beer at 3 AM followed by tasting of a chestnut brew... and don't forget the bagpipe procession to the necropolis at dawn!
(Night of June 23rd to the morning of the 24th.) [MiBAC]

Tidbits from the Italian Press

A few weeks ago a gold cup dated to the Early Bronze Age was discovered at Montecchio Emilia. Its closest parallels come from Northwest Europe (Adnkronos; La Repubblica-Parma).

A large (17 cm) Nuragic bronze of a sitting priest(?) was found near Oristano, bringing the total of known seated Nuragic bronzes to three (ANSA; L'Unione Sarda).

A 4th c. CE mosaic depicting a mounted hunter spearing a boar was discovered by students at Empoli, loc. dell’Oratorio delle Muriccia, just southwest of Florence (la Nazione).
