History of Lake Garda
Due to its strategic position lake Garda was fought over for many centuries. Monuments, documents and
paintings, which can be admired in numerous museums, bear testimony to these turbulent times.
History of Italy - WikipediA
Italy's history is perhaps the most important one for the cultural and social development of the Mediterranean
area as a whole. The country has been host to important human activities in prehistoric times, and therefore
archaeological sites of note can be found in many regions: Latium and Tuscany, Umbria and Basilicata. After
Magna Graecia, the Etruscan civilisation and especially the Roman Empire that came to dominate this part of
the world for many centuries, came the medieval Humanism and the Renaissance that further helped to shape European philosophy and art.
Institute and Museum of the history of science
Villa Giulia National Museum in Rom
The Villa Giulia National Museum was founded in 1889 with the aim of collecting together all the pre-Roman
antiquities of Latium, southern Etruria and Umbria, and mostly contains finds from excavation conducted in Latium between the Tiber and the sea and belonging to the Etruscan and Faliscan civilizations.
