    It was the assyrians whom first used iron weapons in warfare actually, which gave them a huge advantage. The etruscans are actually a distinct people from the romans and they ruled over the early romans, romans kind of said fuck it overthrew the etruscan king and went on an ass kickin campaign while in the process incorporating lots of etruscan ideas, like the toga which they actually got from the etruscans and not the greeks if i remeber history class correctly. As for the twilight question, I'm somewhat useless when it comes to pop culture so I'll have to pass.

    They're a peoples that are believed to have originated from the highlands in modern day turkey and then went on down into mesopotamia if I recall correctly...been around since like something 2000 BC, so definitely before the romans ever came into existence and before the etruscans too. They eventually succumbed to the babylonians and persians as did most anyone else in the region.

    It was big news when it happened. Anyways, the actor was Vic Morrow. They were filming a scene that involved a low flying helicopter, there was some kind of accident, and Morrow's body got in the way of the chopper blades.

    If they posted the head to his wife, they would have had to address it

    'To Morrow'
