Notes	Today, it is understood with increasing clarity that a language is an excellent source of history, especially when other sources are only insignificant. However, it is not easy to evaluate a language in terms of time history and cultural history. When it comes to a language such as the Etruscan language, of which we have very few remnants, the truth of what we say becomes more evident. The fact that we have nearly 10,000 inscriptions does not satisfy us in this regard. Because they are quite uniform. And most of them are grave inscriptions.
