TARXNA
   A descent group of Cerveteri, which is known from no less than forty inscriptions in the Tomb of the Inscriptions in the Banditaccia cemetery, a tomb discovered in 1845 to 1846 and described by George Dennis. The inscriptions appear to represent 33 women and eight men. In spite of the simplified genealogical form of the inscriptions, eight generations were recognized by Mauro Cristofani, starting in the third century BC and lasting until the end of the second or the beginning of the first century BC. In this last stage, the names were written in Latin.
