ABSTRACT This paper builds on the argument that large-scale infrastructural development in remote communities poses a threat to their local heritage landscape. This is done not only through physical intervention in landscapes (through bridges, roads, pipelines or ports) but also through imaginaries projected about development that tends to re-label local landscapes as hotspots for development. This paper explores drawing as a medium to explore fragile-heritage landscapes through the stories, folklores and experiences of local communities within their landscape. It proposes a mapping strategy that attempts to grasp the diminishing heritage landscapes of Gwadar, a coastal town in Pakistan which is being re-claimed as the hub of prosperity (port) connecting two infrastructural mammoths: the BRI land routes and maritime silk roads. Together with the community, their stories and memories, we ‘draw-in’ tangible, immaterial, invisible, human, spiritual and more-than-human entities, and their worlds that are at risk of erasure in the current wave of infrastructural development.

ABSTRACT Discovering England’s Burial Spaces (DEBS) was a two-year project to develop new tools and resources in support of community-led recording of the above-ground archaeology and tangible heritage of burial spaces. This article focuses on the role community groups had in the process of designing and building parts of the new surveying workflow, paying particular attention to the design of the recording system, the role of new digital tools in supporting surveys, and the barriers that might prevent community groups from archiving their research. While the focus is very much on these issues as they played out within the DEBS project itself, the challenges encountered and lessons learnt have implications for Citizen Science projects more broadly, and for researchers and heritage professionals developing new methodologies and tools.

ABSTRACT This article outlines the ways that community-engaged archaeology has and has not affected local interpretations of heritage in the small central Mexican town of Xaltocan. Drawing on observations made while conducting my own collaborative archaeology project in Xaltocan and on filmed interviews conducted during the summer of 2019, I explore a variety of forces that shape how people living in Xaltocan value their town’s past. Furthermore, this study highlights the ways that the modern community memorializes and celebrates the history of their town in an attempt to untangle the broader social meanings of prehispanic heritage, particularly as a mechanism for asserting political and social power in a rapidly changing region.

ABSTRACT In this article, I argue for the value of community inclusion, transparency, and engagement in efforts to change attitudes towards archaeology, using a case from Åland, an autonomous archipelago in the Baltic Sea. With its own legislation concerning the protection of archaeological sites, archaeology on Åland has been a contentious subject for decades. This culminated in 2013 with the controversial trial and conviction of a family for severely and knowingly damaging one of the Stone Age sites on Åland. Against this backdrop, I initiated a project concerning an Iron Age settlement site. I discuss my experience of setting up an independent research project with a focus on publicly engaged archaeology and storytelling within an initially hostile framework, and in a region where archaeology is highly professionalized. The article also illustrates how friction around a community-oriented project can arise between stakeholders as a result of the social dynamics of archaeology itself.

ABSTRACT Since 2013 we built a working group formed by researchers, educators, social workers, communicators and educational psychologists to bring archaeological research to all types of audiences, especially those with limited access to scientific dissemination programmes. In particular, we refer to people with psychological disorders or physical disabilities, older adults, newcomers, social groups traditionally marginalized and people at risk of social exclusion. These groups are usually left out of scientific outreach projects. We regard this neglect as serious as we believe in an inclusive society and the neglect is exclusionary. This work covers archaeological outreach activities engaging with some groups that usually do not participate in, and enjoy, science, specifically with people with intellectual disabilities and mental illnesses, recently arrived immigrants, the elderly and Romani people. Although initially, our activities began in the neighbourhoods of the city centre of Barcelona, today they have spread to other cities in Spain.

ABSTRACT In Australia and New Zealand, a citizen science approach is being trialled to bring spatial scale and longevity to underwater cultural heritage monitoring programmes which are beyond the resourcing capacity of management agencies. Gathering Information via Recreational and Technical (GIRT) Scientific Divers is a no-impact maritime archaeological conservation-focussed citizen science programme that trains members to systematically document observable physical and natural features of underwater cultural heritage, in an open sea water environment, to understand the condition of a site and facilitate its protection and management. A key objective of GIRT is to encourage interested people, businesses, and groups to have an active and positive public (and community) archaeology role. This paper outlines GIRT, its methodology and andragogical teaching approach. Examples noting the significant effort required by members to participate, the need to emphasize the site survey’s scalability of activity, and the value of having included marine science in the methodology are highlighted.
