Dento-alveolar features and diet in an Etruscan population (6th-3rd c. B.C.) from northeast Italy

These findings, quite similar to those of Etruscans from other parts of Italy, are very different from those of other populations living in the same territory during the same time. This pattern is indicative of a general good health status in this Iron Age population and may be related, at least in part, to the Etruscan diet.
