Abstract

This paper approaches some of the less examined or acknowledged aspects of the development of classical archaeology that influence its perspectives and wider role in the societies even today. While it remains focused of the history of classical archaeology, the paper articulates as well few specific and, in many aspects, authentic approaches to the wider trends of rethinking the history of archaeology and nationalism.
Throwing some additional light on the roots of classical archaeology, the paper confronts their multiple layers of interconnectedness with nationalism and politics. Yet, it also provides an illustration of the specific path through which the “egoistic motives” of the researchers transformed and helped the creation the scientific focus and methods of the classical archaeology, thus pushing it into a process of professional growth as an independent scientific discipline.
