The '''Pontifical Committee for Historical Sciences''' is a division of the [[Roman Curia]] established on 7 April 1954 by [[Pope Pius XII]].

==Background==
Pope Pius XII created this Committee on 7 April 1954 as the successor to a commission of cardinals for historical studies that Pope Leo XIII had created on 18 August 1883 with the [[apostolic letter]] ''Saepenumero considerantes''. That commission was created to contribute to the development and proper use of historical sciences, especially late in the nineteenth century when parts of the Vatican's historical records, known as the [[Vatican Secret Archive]], was opened to scholars.<ref></ref> The new Committee was created to foster cooperation with the [[International Committee of Historical Sciences]], which was scheduled to hold its convention in Rome in 1955.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (1 for 2)</ref>

==Functions==
'opera del comitato si caratterizza per l'attenzione riservata al patrimonio archivistico ecclesiastico,e, specialmente, agli archivi vaticani.

Il suo contributo si è allargato anche alla cooperazione con enti e istituzioni ecclesiastiche ed extraecclesiali, particolarmente a livello internazionale.
Un esempio dell'operato può essere riassunto qui in diversi punti:
* organizzazione e partecipazione a numerosi convegni e incontri di studio;
* revisione dei dati storici dell'''[[Annuario Pontificio]]'' (serie dei sommi pontefici, sedi episcopali residenziali e titolari);
* composizione del martirologio;
* collaborazione per iniziative scientifiche sovranazionali ([[UNESCO]]);
* sostenere e stimolare con svariati mezzi didattici (stage di studio, bandi di concorso) lo sviluppo dello studio delle discipline umanistiche (specialmente [[lingua latina|latino]] e [[Lingua greca|greco]]).
