This richly illustrated volume presents a comprehensive account of the excavation in English. It includes the spectacular discoveries of the 2024 campaign, alongside major objects now held in the Collection of Classical Antiquities and the Museum of European Cultures both part of the National Museums in Berlin.
The discovery of a large assemblage of bronze figures at San Casciano dei Bagni in southern Tuscany caused a sensation in 2022. Unearthed from the mud of a thermal spring basin at the centre of an Etrusco-Roman healing sanctuary, these extraordinary artefacts offer striking new insights into centuries of devotional practice. The significance of the find for Etrusco- Roman cultural history is far-reaching: Who came to the sanctuary? Where did they travel from? What prayers did they offer to the deities of the spring? What can these objects tell us about Etruscan ritual, language, and medical knowledge?
