Abstract: The article is based on the significant results of INVENT.ARQ project, benefiting also from the subsequent research, which has resulted in the discovery and (still progressing) study of some more ten inventories. The text opens with a description of the documentary material, followed by the discussion the questions and problems posed by its scientific use, and finaly suggest some avenues of historical and archival research coming from and using ancient inventories of family archives. The essay is most of all of a methodological and pedagogical character, thinking in particular of the growing interest from young researchers. It offers a reflection on the difficulties encountered during an extended period of work on this type of source.
O artigo parte dos resultados do projecto INVENT.ARQ, dedicado aos inventários de arquivos de família século XV ao XIX (2014-2015), e da continuação da investigação desde inícios de 2016, que permitiu a localização e estudo de mais cerca de uma dezena de inventários. Começa-se pela descrição do material documental reunido, para de seguida discutir as questões e problemas colocados por uma sua utilização científica e, por fim, sugerir alguns temas de investigação histórica e de arquivística histórica, a partir de, e com, os documentos em estudo. O texto tem essencialmente um carácter metodológico e pedagógico, reflectindo sobre as dificuldades encontradas nos anos de trabalho com esta fonte.
