Between the 18th and 19th centuries, Naples and its kingdom were a lively hub for the antiquarian milieu, both local and non local. The Bourbon Crown made a noteworthy effort to safeguard the archaelogical heritage of the State, especially following the begining of the excavations in the Vesuvian sites: Herculaenum in 1738, Pompeii in 1748 and Stabiae in 1749. The main target of this work is to track the artifacts exported to european collections, both public and private during 1748-1830.
