摘要

塔尔奎尼亚的丧葬绘画因其非凡的文化和艺术重要性而得到认可,反映了伊特鲁里亚贵族的人生观、丧葬仪式和来世观念,例如他们与自然的关系。尽管这些彩绘树一再出现,但却缺乏对它们的植物学分析。在此,我们分析了 34 座伊特鲁里亚彩绘墓葬,观察了树栖植物,研究了它们的特征结构,并提供了从真实特征中抽象出的关键要素,以了解不同物种是如何表现的。伊特鲁里亚图腾和植物图谱书目以及在线数据库为鉴定提供了支持,这些书目和数据库有助于与所表现的树木中存在的诊断要素进行比较。结果表明,桃金娘(Myrtus communis)和月桂(Laurus nobilis)分别是公元前五世纪和四世纪墓葬中最常见的树栖物种。由于桃金娘属植物与狄奥尼派的关系,桃金娘在丧葬庆典中非常显眼,而月桂则是阿波罗仪式中的圣物。在较小程度上,我们还发现了具有吉祥象征意义的棕榈树(Chamaerops humilis 和 Phoenix dactylifera 的杂交品种),以及无花果(Ficus carica)和冷杉(Picea cfr. excelsa)。这些发现有助于更好地理解树木在伊特鲁里亚文化中的作用,在这里,树木似乎有助于在墓葬中表现出神圣的空间,这与古代神圣森林或 "nemora "的概念是一致的。树木有规律的重复也有助于反映人类生活中的时间事件和时间进程。

Trees and the significance of sacred grove imagery in Etruscan funerary paintings at Tarquinia (Italy)

The funerary paintings at Tarquinia, recognized for their extraordinary cultural and artistic importance, reflect the Etruscan aristocracy’s outlook on life, funeral rites, and their concept of the afterlife, such as their relationship with nature. Despite their recurrence, a botanical analysis of the painted trees was lacking. Here, we analysed 34 Etruscan-painted tombs, looking at the arboreal plants, studying their characteristic architecture, and providing key elements resulting from abstractions from real features for understanding how different species are represented. The identification was supported by a bibliography of Etruscan iconography and botanical atlas and online databases useful for the comparison with the diagnostic elements present in the represented trees. The results show that myrtles (Myrtus communis) and laurels (Laurus nobilis) were the most commonly depicted arboreal species in the fifth and fourth century BC tombs, respectively. Myrtles were prominent in funerary celebrations due to the plant’s Dionysian connection, and laurel was sacred within Apollonian rites. To a lesser extent, we also found palms, with their auspicious symbolism (hybrid forms combining Chamaerops humilis and Phoenix dactylifera), and single occurrences of fig (Ficus carica), and fir (Picea cfr. excelsa). These findings help to better comprehend the role of trees in Etruscan culture, which here seem to contribute to the representation of a sacred space within the funerary tomb, in keeping with the ancient concept of the sacred forests or “nemora”. The regular repetition of trees also helps to project sequences of temporal events and the progress of time in human life.
