In recent years, ontology plays an important role in facilitating the semantic description of images which consists of describing the image by a set of words to describe the scene which signifies the belonging of the image. This description specified in several archaeological fields such as cultural, religious objects and heritage objects of France. However, the description of archaeological images is not yet exploited because this field is very diverse. In this article, we present a panel of ontology construction methods as well as archaeological ontologies. Also, we show our own OntunAr ontology to describe Tunisian archaeological images. In addition, we integrate OnTunAr into the automatic annotation of Tunisian archaeological images.
