• Resumen

  • During the second half of the 19th century, Portuguese archaeology was scarcely represented in national daily press, compared to the number of articles dealing with news from other countries, informing about archaeological discoveries in Greece, Egypt, and ancient Mesopotamia, etc., as they involved the Old Testament, and the basis of European culture.

    However, during the second decade of the 20th century things seemed quite different. That is why we will analyse Portuguese newspapers in order to understand this phenomenon, and the reasons for the identified differences.
