    Favoni, you have claimed that archaeology purports the Etruscans to be much earlier than the Latins. That is not true, and I can only think that what you have looked up is some old material. You have mentioned Scullard who wrote in the 1970's. Try reading T. J. Cornell, too, a later author who sets out the arguments against the 'Etruscan first' theory in The Beginnings of Rome, 1995. Also, Favoni, I do subscribe to archaeological periodicals, receive online newsservice concerned with archaeology and do my own websearches for latest archaeological information. I am curious to learn what it is you are reading that you have so misperceived what archaeological evidence provides on these issues.

    Now I asked you for something specific, but all you do is complain and avoid the question. If you are so certain of your claims, then defend it by providing us with current archaeological evidence.
