Its subject of research concerns objects which once fulfilled specific functions in everyday legal life of the society. Legal archaeology has been the subject of lectures at Polish universities for many decades. The author attempted to define the scope of teaching this subject, taking into account the experience of different historians of law who conduct such lectures. The author analyzed selected conceptions of teaching legal archaeology. As a result, she indicated which old buildings, devices, tools, and other items, including official uniforms, insignia, and attributes of public authority, are best suited to the presentation of old places and methods of lawmaking and law enforcement. She concluded that lectures on legal archaeology serve to broaden the general humanistic and social knowledge of students, as well as shape their civic and patriotic behaviors. }, doi = {10.4467/20844131KS.24.004.19461}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/kshpp/article/materialne-dziedzictwo-prawne-i-jego-wykorzystanie-w-edukacji-prawniczej-walory-wykladu-z-polskiej-archeologii-prawnej} }
