拜占庭印章是独立于文献资料之外的又一种探究拜占庭历史的重要依据。由于印章具有标明身份的特点,因此,对拜占庭印章及其图案、铭文之分析,有助于揭示印章持有者的身份特征、社会地位等问题,进而重构对拜占庭社会的政治、经济和文化结构的理解,还原历史真相。目前,虽然已有大量拜占庭印章被发掘出来,但是绝大部分还未经系统整理,对其研究仍处于初始阶段。因此,该领域尚有很大的研究空间。

The Byzantine seal is another important source of inquiry into the Byzantine history beyond the literature. Because of the identity of the seal, the analysis of the Byzantine seal and its inscriptions and inscriptions helps to reveal the identity and social status of the seal holder, and then reconstructs the political, economic and cultural aspects of the Byzantine society Structural understanding, restoring the truth of history. At present, although a large number of Byzantine seals have been excavated, most of them have not yet been systematically organized and their research is still in its infancy. Therefore, there is still much room for research in this field.
