Document Details : Title: A Note on the Myth of Tages Author(s): RICHARDSON, J.H. Journal: BABESCH Volume: 83 Date: 2008 Pages: 107-109 DOI: 10.2143/BAB.83.0.2033101 Abstract : This note suggests that Tages, the mythical founder of the Etrusca disciplina, is depicted on an engraved Etruscan mirror in the British Museum. The identification, if correct, provides some verification of the literary evidence for the myth of Tages, but it substantially undermines the common equation of Pavatarchies, a youth who appears on another engraved Etruscan mirror, with Tages. |
