Abstract

In the archaeological activity, the just classification of the artefact is the right keyword to understand the whole monument in study. Therefore, classification tables of ceramics, for example, were early stablished. In other side, exhaustive coins’ catalogues – specially of the Roman Empire – are indispensable. In the epigraphic studies identify gods and persons is one of the most important jobs of the researcher.
