Eleonora introduces us to her two horses. She tells the story of how they came to be part of her life.

We get a look at the tomb, in terracotta, of a noblewoman. The clay allows for detail, where tombs in Macco do not. We then go to Rome, to the most important Etruscan museum, where we see once again, what an important role the afterlife played in the lives (and deaths) of the Etruscans.

Eleonora tells us about how she combines her love for animals, especially horses, with a path to a career.

We're still in Tarquinia and we visit the tomb of Aninas. We gain some insight into the alphabet the Etruscans used, allowing us to recognize some names, but unfortunately, they didn't leave much in the way of writings to allow us to know much more.

This magnificent, colorful tomb, dating to twenty-five hundred years ago, depicts a banquet in honor of the deceased, who is clearly a young man. It's a virtual time capsule.

The Matuna family tomb contains many plaster reproductions of everyday objects, adding to the story of how the Etruscans lived. We move on to Tarquinia, where the tombs were carved out of a sedimentary limestone called Macco, allowing the colorful wall paintings to be preserved.

One of the most famous tombs is that of the Matuna family. The reproductions and depictions of objects found there, ranging from everyday tools to ceremonial and funereal ones, allows us a glimpse of what life would have been like in this ancient civilization.

There were different kinds of tombs built by the Etruscans. Alberto Angela explains how and why they were made the way they were. He also takes us into one of the most famous and beautiful Etruscan tombs.

The Etruscans were an important part of Italy's ancient history, and its lands extended for a large expanse of the peninsula. We visit Banditaccia a Cerveteri, a necropolis north of Rome.

We finally get to producing the fire itself, using tools found in nature. It's not easy at all, but when you finally succeed, it can be pretty exciting and satisfying.

This episode takes us to Sardinia where we see the ancient, majestic stone buildings, unique to Sardinia, called nuraghi.

Erica shows us the various parts of so-called "tinder fungus" and then demonstrates how to prepare it for lighting a fire using a sharp flintstone.

Discovering fire had a huge influence on the daily life of prehistoric man. Erica describes perhaps the earliest technique they used for making fire, and goes on to tell us about a famous mummy.

Erica takes us back to the time when prehistoric man first discovered that fire was not just something to fear, as was the case with animals, but something he could make use of, and later, something he could produce.

This episode of Wonders concludes, as we await more treasures to discover.
