Vulci Beyond Vulci

The more than 30 museums listed in this section are only a portion of those that hold artifacts originating from Vulci. Numerous other institutions, not included here, further demonstrate how Vulci has been plundered and stripped of its heritage over the centuries. Artifacts continue to emerge to this day through research and archaeological excavations carried out annually by the Fondazione Vulci (managing body of the Vulci Archaeological and Nature Park) and the Superintendence of Archaeology, Fine Arts and Landscape for the Province of Viterbo and Southern Etruria.

To provide a concise overview, only four artifacts per museum are illustrated in this section, despite the fact that institutions such as the British Museum in London house over 600 items from Vulci, and the University of Pennsylvania Museum of Archaeology in Philadelphia holds approximately 350.
