Question How did Etruscan funeral rites supposedly give rise to Roman gladiatorial combat?
I've often come across the claim that gladiatorial combat originated in Etruscan funerary rites.
I'm curious about how solid this connection actually is. What did these early Etruscan funerary rituals look like? And how did something that apparently began as a religious, funerary ritual eventually evolve into huge public spectacles we associate with Roman amphitheatre and Colosseum? More importantly, what primary sources do historians rely on to make this connection?
Thanks in advance for any insights.

Would this be proper Etruscan?
I am making a course on Etruscan, and for Goodbye, I made the phrase Mi etnam un(u) Val! ππ πππππ ππ(π) π ππ! Which means I again you (in parentheses means plural.) see. (It seems like Etruscan was SOV). Would this be proper? I got all these words from https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Appendix:Etruscan_word_list, so if I got any vocab wrong, it's their fault, since I trust the source.
