Description

Color illustration by Tancredi Scarpelli from the book "History of costumes through the Centuries" by Paolo Lorenzini, Nerbini Publishing House, Florence, 1934. The Etruscan boxers wore a short and narrow skirt that reached above the knee. Their hands were armed with a circle of iron wrapped in leather, which encircled the fist and was secured to the wrist with straps.
Illustrazione a colori di Tancredi Scarpelli dal libro "Storia del costume dei popoli attraverso i secoli" di Paolo Lorenzini, Casa Editrice Nerbini, Firenze, 1934. I pugilatori etruschi indossavano una corta e stretta gonnella che arrivava sopra il ginocchio. Le mani erano armate con un cerchio di ferro fasciato di cuoio, che recingeva il pugno e si fermava al polso con corregge.
