Abstract

Shortly before the close of the year 1868 some excavations were undertaken in the neighbourhood of the ancient Præneste of the Sabine Equi, now Palestrina, by private speculators, who had the good fortune to find a sarcophagus, containing some objects of great interest and artistic excellence. Among these were three Etruscan specchi, or mirrors, which are figured in the Monumenti inediti dell' Instituto di Correspondenza Archeologica, vol. ix. plate vii., and are further described by Dr. H. Heydemann, in the Annali of that Society, at page 193 of the volume for 1869.
