Abstract
Music Archaeology studies the sounds and the musical cultures of the past through the examination of archaeological evidences. Furthermore, it is also narrowly connected to Ethnomusicology and other auxiliary disciplines such as Acoustics, Experimental Archaeology, Ethnoarchaeology, Iconography and Organology. But the diversity of approaches to the music of the distant past requires a theoretical and historiographical examination in order to be able to find the limits and perspectives of the music archaeological research. This article will focus on the Historiography and Methodology of Music Archaeology as a way to understand to what extent this discipline can contribute to the knowledge of music as culture.
