A method and a system for locating objects is described, effective against any loss of items. The system is provided with high autonomy, capable of effectively tackling the unforeseeable and variable nature typical of forgetfulness, without for this reason being indiscrete and without the system itself constituting another object to be remembered, or rather not to forget, as well as being able to be integrated in commonly used objects. The system comprises acellular telephone (CELL), equipped with a positioning system (LOC) and with a short range communication interface adapted to allow connection with at least one hardware/software agent (A1- A4) that can be associated with an object that can be lost (O1-O4), which is adapted to cyclically send a presence signal, and to go into a rest mode when there is no reply to the presence signal from the cellular telephone (CELL), and it is adapted to establish a communication with passing mobile terminals, the cellular telephone (CELL) being arranged for running a processing programme to associate the cellular telephone (CELL) with respective hardware/software agents (A1-A4), for checking for the presence of such agents (A1-A4), for searching for their position, storing the time and location of the possible separation and transmitting possible activation commands to them.
