Murlo
Murlo is a comune (municipality) in the Province of Siena in the Italian region Tuscany, located about south of Florence and about south of Siena.
Murlo borders the following municipalities: Buonconvento, Civitella Paganico, Montalcino, Monteroni d'Arbia, Monticiano, Sovicille.
The hill of Poggio Civitate was an ancient settlement located in the commune and currently the site of archaeological investigations.
Recent analysis showed that DNA of individuals from Murlo were more closely related those from near Eastern people than those of the other Italian samples, lending credence to Herodotus' attribution of Lydian origin to the Etruscans.
