It long lay hidden, embedded in a Greek translation within a Byzantine treatise from the age of Justinian. The first complete English translation of the Brontoscopic Calendar, this book provides an understanding of Etruscan Iron Age society as revealed through the ancient text, especially the Etruscans' concerns regarding the environment, food, health and disease. Jean MacIntosh Turfa also analyzes the ancient Near Eastern sources of the Calendar and the subjects of its predictions, thereby creating a picture of the complexity of Etruscan society reaching back before the advent of writing and the recording of the calendar. 606 $aEtruscans$xReligion 606 $aOmens 606 $aCalendar, Greek 606 $aAstronomy, Greek 615 0$aEtruscans$xReligion. 615 0$aOmens. 615 0$aCalendar, Greek. 615 0$aAstronomy, Greek. 676 $a299/.9294 700 $aTurfa$b Jean MacIntosh$f1947-$0853452 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910790487803321 996 $aDivining the Etruscan world$93850764 997 $aUNINA
