    When the Romans conquered the Etruscans, they really did not. In effect they did like John Hyranus of Palestine did to the Edomites, he incorporated the survivors into the kingdom of Judea.

    Later the Edomites took over both the priesthood and the kingship.

    The same thing happened in Rome.

    That is why the Apostle Paul was killed, and why the Romans were spurred to hassle the Christians, and the hidden Etruscan influence was also behind the establishment of the Vatican.

    Judging from what happened in Roman history, it is a good guess that the Etruscans were a branch of the Edomite group.

    They did. They were defeated by Greeks.

    If that's true, then many of the customs and religious practices of the Etruscans, that they transmitted to the Romans, could go back ancient Turkey and Man's distant past.

    In one form or another they probably do. The Latin peoples probably migrated from that general area themselves in the distant past.

    There was a great deal of overlap between the Etruscan, Greek, and Roman pantheons, for example.
    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    I'm interested in ancient history in general. I do wonder how much of the neolithic religion/culture survived and was carried to the Italian peninsula and into our historical knowledge.

    In some form I would imagine it lived on in Classical culture and continues to live on in some of our cultural attitudes/perspectives in spite of Christianity. Fascinating question, actually.
