=== Pottery === The Faliscans earned large quantities of [[Black-figure pottery|black]] and [[red-figure pottery]] from trade with the [[Attic Greek|Attic]] parts of Greece and immigration of Attic artisans.{{Sfn|Tabolli|Neri|2017|p=566}}{{Sfn|Pola|2018|p=635}}{{Sfn|Harari|2010|p=89}} By the 4th-century BCE, the red-figure style became the predominant type of pottery in the ''ager Faliscus''.{{Sfn|Tabolli|Neri|2017|p=566}} During this same century, the city of Falerii experienced significant artistic development; 4th-century BCE pottery from Falerii demonstrates standardized design and highly technical craftsmanship.{{Sfn|Harari|2010|p=83}} [[Vincent Jolviet]] studied Faliscan tombs and divided Faliscan red-figure pottery into two categories: the "Style ancien," which comprises pottery produced around 380 BCE, and the "Style récent," consisting of pottery made from 340-280 BCE.{{Sfn|Verreyke|2002|p=44}} The ancient Faliscan style contained distinctly Faliscan characteristics such as the decorations under the handles, although it remained strongly influenced by its Attic origins. In contrast, the recent style shows greater evidence of technical differences from Attic pottery: decorations in the recent style were painted without relief-lines, using thin, rushed, and watery paint lines instead.{{Sfn|Harari|2010|p=90}} Late Faliscan pottery contained [[Volute|volutes]], tongue-decorations on the shoulders, and [[Palmette|palmettes]] beneath the handles. Dionysian imagery,{{Sfn|Harari|2010|p=90}} such as depictions of [[Satyr|satyrs]] and [[Maenad|maenads]] alongside birds, also became staples of late Faliscan pottery. Winged figures were used to fill up blank spaces easily, expediting the production process.{{Sfn|Verreyke|2002|p=46}}
