	Liber Linteus information - Search.com
		The Liber Linteus (Zagrabiensis) (also rarely known as Liber Agramensis) (Latin: Linen Book (of Zagreb) or Book of Agram) is the longest Etruscan text and the only extant linen book.
		However, by comparing the shape and style of the characters contained within the text to those found on other Etruscan artifacts it is possible to infer an approximate date of 250 BCE.
		As the Etruscan tongue slowly died out the meaning of the Liber Linteus would have been forgotten: first as a text, and then as a sacred object.

	Calligraphy and Language of the 'Liber Linteus'
		From the first studies, it has been noticed that there is a multitude of variants the scribe has adopted in copying the same words, that can be interpreted not only as a symptom of an exceptionally archaic transcript, but also simply as an insufficient knowledge of the Etruscan language on the part of the transcriber.
		Not being able to accept the idea that the Etruscan language was already a "dead language" at a time of the creation of the "Liber Linteus", we have to assume that the accumulation and preservation of old lost traditions in a text, in the style of writing, is justified by it's character.
		It is known, that the sphere of religion is very conservative; the innovations here, if they exist, do not cancel the old: it is known as well, that the Etruscan civilization had it's strongest unifying starting point in the religious dimension.
