Vanth
Vanth is a female demon in Etruscan mythology who is often depicted in funerary art. She is usually shown with wings, and she is often accompanied by Charun, another underworld demon. Vanth has been compared to the Greek Furies, but she is usually depicted as a benevolent guide, not an avenging spirit. She is often shown carrying a torch, key, or scroll, and she is sometimes shown wearing a short chiton and fur boots. Vanth is associated with death and the journey of the deceased to the Underworld. She is depicted as a young, vibrant female figure who assists with the journey of the deceased to the underworld.
