Hello, I am Tarchunes. The Etruscan Name chosen by me means "The one from Tarquinia (Etr. Tarchna)". I do not come from Tarquinia, but in my eyes this Etruscan city is the most fascinatig of all places of the stunningly interesting Etruscan culture. I am more or less active on the English wikipedia since June 4th 2014. Because I have only few time, I plan to add information to existing articles and give ideas for new articles, rarely to write own articles. Most of my commitment goes to the German wikipedia for the reason that German is my mother tongue, but I will also work at the English wikipedia when I find time to do so or when I discover a lack of knowledge which urgently has to be closed. Presently, I am most active in German folklore, a field hardly accessible to anyone not fluent in German.
