Etruscan Maenad Antefix 6th Century BCE

"The next day the Tyrrhenians, having learned of the withdrawal of the Romans, stripped their dead, took up and carried off their wounded, and plundered all the stores they had left in their camp, which were very abundant as having been prepared for a long war; then, like conquerors, they laid waste the adjacent territory of the enemy, after which they returned home with their army."

-Dionysius of Halicarnassus, The Roman Antiquities: Book 9.4
