Etruscan Culture placed emphasis on sports
competitions, as a form of religious representation.
The most popular sports were Horseback Riding and Chariot Racing.
Equestrian sports, boxing and wrestling, empassioned the Etruscans.
In contrast with Greeks, Etruscans wore boxing gloves & tunics. Greeks considered their nude athletes more “heroic”, but Etruscans considered their nudity as amateur behaviour.
