Abstract
In recent years, professional archaeologists have increasingly been called upon by civil and criminal Courts to act as courtappointed experts all over the world. In Italy, in particular, this professional profile seems to be less popular due to some misunderstandings related to both the tasks and the roles. This article will clarify some legal aspect of being a forensic archaeologist in Italy from theoretical and practical points of view.
