A gestão do acervo arqueológico do Laboratório de Arqueologia, Etnologia e Etno-História - LAEE/UEM

The Guardianship and Research Institutions play an extremely important role in the preservation of Brazilian heritage assets, especially mobile archaeological assets. In this sense, their work goes through different stages so that their purpose of preserving the assets is fulfilled: safeguarding (conservation and documentation) and extroversion (exhibitions and educational activities). This article presents the protocols developed and used to manage the archaeological assets that make up the Technical Reserve and, consequently, the Archaeological Collection of the Laboratory of Archaeology, Ethnology and Ethno-History at the State University of Maringá (LAEE/UEM). The protocols for managing the assets from the moment the institutional endorsement was issued, their entry into the LAEE, the actions taken for curation, as well as the preservation procedures and extroversion activities carried out so far, are presented.
