Summary

The concluding chapter highlights the salient features of Etruscan spatial organisation. The study has identified distinctive and varied trajectories between city territories and identified different types of frontiers between them. Questions are also posed and answers proposed as to why nucleation took place. Broad comparisons are also made with examples of state formation outside Etruria. Further work is merited to get properly to grips with the rural settlement patterns, specifically the comparative use of the extensive field surveys which have been practised in Central Italy. A further challenge is to write one book which brings the cultural riches of the Etruscans together with their lived landscape, building on previous attempts by the current author with Nigel Spivey and Graeme Barker with Tom Rasmussen. This is work for the future.
