Welcome and R:About Cippus perusinus edit
Hi Petter Iaz. Welcome to the Wikipedia, I hope you'll enjoy your stay here.
Regarding the recent edits you did at Cippus of Perugia, I have to say you that I reverted them because they were unsourced. At Wikipedia we cannot report our original research but we have to rely on third party sources. Take a look at WP:NOR to further read about this matter.
The Cippus of Perugia has been studied by scholars from all over the world during the last century and it is widely recognized as a "Boundary Stone" between the properties of two Etruscan families. The text encarved in the stone is a legal deed that regulated a controversy between the Etruscan families that had their burial ground in a common place. I reported several sources for this interpretation of the Cippus, you can see them on the sections Notes, References and External Links of the article page. Or you can have a glance at these links:

Please do not remove anything from the article, and do not add any translation if you are not able to provide any independent source that confirms that translation. --Grifomaniacs (talk) 15:42, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
