A trial to achieve unified perceiving of anthropogenic soils, according to their definition and characteristics, is presented especially regarding anthropogenic soils classification. Also a proposal explaining terminological situation in many new emerged terms (like anthropogenic soil, urban soil, man-made soil, artificial soil, cultivated soil, etc.) is provided in aspect to find internationally acceptable consensus. A comparison methodology of classification criteria principles has been applied using several world-wide and some national concepts of anthropogenic soil classification systems. It is necessary to note that diagnostics, definition and classification of cultivated soils developing in situ well match in many countries. A task for solution has to be focused on soils occurring in urban, industrial, traffic and mining areas (soils developing from removed and/or transported materials i.e. soils of ex-situ).
