This study aims to examine some questions related to how the historiography evaluated the contribution offered by logical Stoic philosophers. It is, above all, two open positions in opposition: an initial analysis is essentially negative and derogatory, denying any value to elaborations stoic in logic; the other hand, there is a revaluation of the importance of logic in the history of the Stoic Philosophy, in general, and in the history of logic, specifically. The main reference here emphasized is the positive work of the logician Lukasiewicz. It is intended, therefore, provide subsidies for a reflection that extends the evaluation of the potential that Stoic logic offers to students of Philosophy and Logic.
