Since the traditional division of the sciences leads to distortions and anachronisms, especially in the case of ancient documents, this work presents a reflection on the problems and challenges faced by the production of science in Brazil and the classification of the sciences, by focusing especially on the instance of the History of Science as interdisciplinary field of studies by nature and origin. The status of interdisciplinarity of History of Science is a consequence of its establishing its subject-matters in the intersection between the humanities and the sciences through historiographical and epistemological analyses. In this way, it represents a relevant study-case in the light of the current evaluation requirements used by the agencies for scientific policy and the endowment of science and technology. For this reason, it is here proposed a classification in and for the History of Science that takes into account the different meanings that science and the several sciences had in the course of history, grounded on the instance of the collection of documents of Center Simão Mathias of Studies in the History of Science (CESIMA)
