Iguvine Tablets - Epigraphic Note

Epigraphic Note

The tablets are engraved on bronze. The analysis of the external appearance of the supporting material has led scholars to conclude that only tablets V, VI and VII were meant to be exposed in public. The other ones were cast as an archive document. They are inscribed in Italic alphabet derived from Etruscan (T. I to Vb 8) and in Latin alphabet (T. Vb 9, VI, VII).
