The aim of this paper is a critical survey of webGIS in Archaeology and its real usability. Generally, webGIS users can search, visualize, print, download and, in a few cases, upload data; so the system seems to be the ideal platform to share information. However this wonderland does not exist in the real world. First of all, because it is not easy to find projects on-line: wrong or expired links, slow page loading, system crashing. Second, because, even when it is possible to download or upload data, bridges or connections between different systems are missing. Starting from the point of view of a web user, different webGIS projects on-line were surveyed, in order to give a global overview of Internet cartography applied to archaeology.
