Anyone have this deck? I don't hear much about it. Maybe its because the pictures are rather simple, plain-looking and uncluttered. Kinda like "archaelogical artifacts." I'm thinking of getting it though cuz I want a simple deck.

Neptune: You've pegged it: the images of the Tartessos Tarot are based on Iberian archaeological artifacts. The illustrations have a bit of a "cartoony" look IMO, but I don't see that as necessarily being a bad thing. Be aware that the pips are unillustrated, so I'd recommend that you plan to use the Tartessos for readings only if you're comfortable with Marseilles-style decks. -- Jeannette http://www.tarotgarden.com
