flat and the legs, if any, were carved in cylinders. That of the females would have the same features as the male, yet they would be enclosed in a house-like structure, with the ends of the bed raised in a triangular shape to resemble roofing. There have also been smaller sarcophagi found near where the women would be buried that have been presumed to be for children. They would indicate the number and gender of people on the outside of the tomb. Etruscan Women Limited evidence has been found about what the Etruscans did as a whole but from what has been found from sites dating back to the Orientalizing period, women of higher Etruscan society did have the same status as the men. Seen in burials they have had a more lavish and numerous amounts that they were buried with, as well with pottery that would have inscriptions of both their individual name (praenomen) and their family name (nomen), although only free women would have a personal name. It has been shown that women of the higher society were literate and that females related to a male by blood ties were respected since they were the ones carrying children through her bloodline. Similar Sarcophagi A similar sarcophagus from Caere was found at the Banditaccia necropolis. It also is called the Sarcophagus of the Spouses (Sarcophage des Époux) and is in the Louvre in Paris (Cp 5194). This sarcophagus has similarities that can suggest that they were made in the same studio, from the size, shape, and function of the sarcophagi. A second similar sarcophagus that could have been from the same studio was found in Caere. The urn of Monte Abatone, which is smaller than the other two, is made of terracotta and is in a similar style of laying on a couch or kline. It differs from the other two in that it is a single figure of a woman, as she poses in a way that depicts her pouring a liquid, possibly oil or perfume, in her hand. This work is located at National Etruscan Museum of Villa Giulia, Rome, and in 2021 this urn has been going through restoration by the Museums Restoration Service and the DE.CO.RE Company. Another similar urn exists that has the same dynamic as the Sarcophagus of the Spouses, just a smaller version. This urn also has a couple, the bare chested
