There was a time when archaeology and its method of planning - the archive - were instruments of conservation and institutionalization of a common history - unique and hence totalitarian. History as monument. Humanist philology discovered that due to the collation and analysis of all testimonies - the archive documents - it is possible to trace a single text. A text free of any previous corruption which might have been imposed throughout time: this is what we define as the original. And monuments, schools and governments were founded around this ideal of the original.
