ABSTRACT Anastelosis, which is defined as the reassembly of a structure by bringing together its existing original fragments, is a technique of conservation and presentation in archaeological sites. The aim of this study is to contribute to the conservation and presentation of the structures and to determine the basic principles to be considered during the implementation by analysing and evaluating the anastelosis implementation at temple structures in Western Anatolia, Turkey. The authors examined on-site evidence, archival and literature review. Analysis criteria were determined as emphasis of the structure within site scale and in original state, structural and visual integrity of the monument, authenticity, reliability, distinguishability, visual and material compatibility, reversibility and re-treatability. As a result, it was pointed out that the principles of reversibility/re-treatability and distinguishability should be managed while providing reliability, compatibility/structural and visual integrity in line with the preservation of authenticity.

ABSTRACT The Roman city of Complutum (Alcala de Henares, Spain) conserves archaeological remains declared of cultural interest at an international level. The site presents two areas which are currently covered, the House of Hippolytus and the House of the Griffins, both with exceptional decorative programmes. Shelters are commonly considered the most suitable preventive conservation option for exposed archaeological sites, as they are able to reduce the impact of direct sunlight and rainfall. However, shelters may not fully protect a site and active decay has been often documented on covered remains. An extensive monitoring programme based on temperature, relative humidity, and light readings inside and outside the shelters has been undertaken over the course of a year (2018–2019) to evaluate the suitability of sheltering and the performance of the two types of covers from the point of view of the preservation of the remains.
摘要罗马城市孔普卢图姆（Alcala de Henares，西班牙）保存着被宣布具有国际文化价值的考古遗迹。该遗址有两个目前被覆盖的区域，希波吕图之家和格里芬之家，这两个区域都有特殊的装饰方案。避难所通常被认为是暴露在外的考古遗址最合适的预防性保护选择，因为它们能够减少阳光直射和降雨的影响。然而，避难所可能无法完全保护一个遗址，而且经常记录有被覆盖的遗骸上有活跃的腐烂现象。在一年的时间里（2018-2019年），根据避难所内外的温度、相对湿度和光线读数，开展了一项广泛的监测计划，以从遗骸保存的角度评估避难所的适宜性和两种类型的覆盖物的性能。

ABSTRACT War is an invasive spatial practice and naturally, these practices are detrimental for archaeological heritage. However, a form of war-related damage to archaeological heritage is hitherto unrecognised. This paper represents a first attempt to define, quantify and estimate the extent of war damage to archaeological heritage caused by deployment, placement and removal of landmines and various other explosive remnants of war (ERW). Three case studies from Croatia each demonstrate that estimated figures are staggering and that archaeological heritage is indeed gravely affected. We suggest that adequate reaction from various stakeholders is missing. This is unfortunate because the case studies also demonstrate that the loss of archaeological potential could be mitigated and controlled. Deployment and removal of explosive devices are activities which must be recognised managed as a form of war damage. Archaeological community should take a keener interest in the subject and become a relevant stakeholder in mine action.

ABSTRACT This study focuses on the capabilities of GIS technology to explore the spatial features of burial mounds within testing areas located in the Crimean Peninsula and the Belgorod region. A brief overview of information about the mounds and their distribution in the territory of Russia is given. Examples of GIS projects aimed at preserving the historical and cultural heritage of the mounds are presented. The possibilities for multidisciplinary research of the mounds are shown. The experience of holding events related to the protection of mounds in the Belgorod region was considered. The following data groups were used to conduct the study: the database of mounds, archival cartographic materials covering data on the research area since the 19th century; digital elevation models, and layers of land plots from the GIS server. The rate of loss of the mounds within the testing areas was determined using multi-temporal maps.

ABSTRACT Rock art is one of the most attractive heritage resources. Yet, some of these sites are either closed from the public or were never officially opened in the first place. Based on them being inaccessible to the public, various replicas have been built to allow tourists to still see their images. While these sites are inaccessible to the general public, they are not spared from natural and human induced damage. Informed by the three issues I discuss in this paper, namely: (1) the idea of selecting identified heritage resources as being important, (2) critiquing the concept of managing heritage resources for future generations, and (3) debating the question of who are we managing rock art for, I conclude that rock art should not be closed to the public. Such an approach promotes a view that such valuable spaces are preserved only for the privileged few.

ABSTRACT In this paper, we discuss the management strategies applied to rock art in Western cultural contexts (France and northern Spain). How do the persons responsible for rock art sites manage the tension between their conservation and long-term transmission, and their opening to the public to enable their heritage value to be shared and transmitted in the present? Drawing on a typology of the many possible configurations, we discuss the choices made by the actors in charge of decorated sites. We thus demonstrate that the implementation of quotas depends on the priorities of the decision-makers and their interpretation of the preservation of a decorated site. Finally, our empirical approach leads to a discussion of the accessibility of rock art sites from the angle of heritage access rights and the heritage-making process. What meaning do we ascribe to sites that remain closed and thus cannot be experienced by the public?

ABSTRACT South Africa is richly endowed with rock art but interest in its conservation has not been given much priority. The country has been slow in developing adequate and effective conservation protocols due to lack of research interest in conservation. There are three main challenges that affect the conservation of rock art: 1) absence of coherent monitoring systems for conservation interventions; 2) lack of local expertise in rock art conservation; and 3) limited financial resources for conservation leading to an over-reliance on donor funding. In this paper we draw from the ‘Four Rock Art Sites Conservation Project’ a Rock Art Research Institute initiative funded through the US Ambassadors fund for Cultural Preservation, and outline how these challenges have plagued conservation practice in South Africa. We highlight the positive outcomes of the project and propose recommendations’ for conservation management in South Africa.

ABSTRACT During the second millennium CE, the medieval settlements of Kilwa in southeastern Tanzania were part of the Indian Ocean trading system that left a clear physical legacy of stone towns along with oral histories and sailing traditions. Modern developmental activities including exploration of oil and gas, house building, and establishment of tourism infrastructures have led to the reuse of heritage site, hence, an inevitable pressure upon heritage preservation. Unfortunately, despite being outdated and very colonial, legislations enacted to support protection of heritage sites are inadequately enforced. This paper looks at complementary conservation challenges by considering the value of medieval monuments and intangible heritage assets within the ecosystem services. We also provide some suggestions on how exploitation of non-material benefits in the form of Cultural Ecosystem Services from legends based on intertidal limestone features resembling boats and giants, as well as the venerated baobabs and mangroves can become sustainable.

ABSTRACT The present study deals with the definition of the necessary principles, methods and materials for conservation of the monuments in Firuzabad and Bishapur in the province of Fars in Iran, such as the remains of the Ardashir Palace and Anahita’s temple complex. Moreover, specifications are provided for the conservation interventions on these monuments, according to the international theoretical principles and rules, thus guaranteeing successful implementation of intervention methods and materials on these monuments of the world cultural heritage. The inspection of the monuments in 2009 by the scientific team of the Technical University of Crete resulted in the development of a framework for a conservation plan based on the characterisation of building materials and condition. More specifically, the analysis and characterisation of three gypsum mortars from the monuments in Fars provided invaluable information for the design of repair mortars with enhanced properties aiming at restoring these monuments.
