Abstract
The article examines the antiquarian activities of Pirro Ligorio and members of the Academy of Sdegnati (1541–1545) (Accademia degli Sdegnati). The Academy consisted of a group of Italian and French (and also Dutch-German) antiquarians and scientists whose extensive program was based on a new scientific study of Vitruvius, and represented the first comprehensive attempt to articulate the goals of classical archeology.
