The pre-Roman peoples of Italy, particularly during the Iron Age, experienced significant cultural interactions that shaped their societies. This article explores the case of the Venetic inscriptions as a key example of cultural contact in Iron Age Italy.

Through an analysis of these inscriptions, this paper examines the role of the Veneti in the broader context of Iron Age Italy’s cultural landscape, emphasizing the significance of their scripts and material culture.

This study examined the reality of the distribution of infrastructure services in general in Najaf Governorate, revealing the effectiveness of these services and the extent to which they are delivered to citizens. The distribution of infrastructure services in the governorate was studied. Understanding the nature of this distribution and its impact on the level of service provision helps identify the locations of services to be established in the future within development plans, to address the current shortage in these services, and to keep pace with the increasing population.
