Tarchna was a little town in Etrusca, situated about 80 kilometers north-west of Rome, on the Etruscan coast. High, wooden cliffs soamed the shore, and into these cliffs rock houses were built, well hid behind the trees. Far below, a path led towards a small gravel beach where fishers had fixed their boats.
Tarchna was Etrusca's most important port, even although it was hid like a fortress and not as much space as in bigger harbours. However, the advantage of this was that only allies found the way to the most popular trading space in Etrusca, to enemies it easily remained hidden.
