“Together with the Museum, and necessary for its completion, I considered it useful to begin the collection of ethnological and paleo-ethnological publications… To the nascent library, in addition to many other works, I judged it opportune to give all the writings on Italian paleo-ethnology which I had succeeded in gathering, with not a few hours of effort, over the long period of twenty years. In short, as in what pertains to the various collections, also for this part I make it my duty to consider every gift that I receive as addressed to the Museum itself. My sole concern is that this Institute should succeed as much as possible in being useful to scholars.”<\/i><\/p>\n

Luigi Pigorini, 1881<\/p>\n

From the 1875 founding of the \u2018Luigi Pigorini\u2019 National Prehistoric Ethnographic Museum to the present day, the Library of Prehistory and Ethnography<\/b> has served as a hub for studies of prehistoric archaeology <\/b>and ethno-anthropology<\/b>. Enriched through important purchases and bequests, now with more than 80,000 volumes<\/b>, the library is the oldest and richest Italian collection of paleo-ethnological and ethno-anthropological bibliographic material and a true center of excellence for studies in the field.
The library continues to grow thanks to a dense network of exchanges of the Bullettino di Paletnologia Italiana<\/i><\/b><\/a> and the Institute’s non-periodical issues for the publications of the most important national and international scientific institutions of archeology and ethnography.<\/p>\n
