The city of Cerveteri, previously known as Caere and Cisra for the Etruscans and Agylla (for the Greeks, has a long history, dating back to the middle of the ninth century BC
Caere was among the Greeks a great reputation for the value of its people and their sense of justice, because they abstained from piracy as to be the only Etruscan city to erect its own thesauros in Delphi and devote to Pythian Apollo the “Treasury of Agillei “.
