The relationship between archaeology and conservation has long been complex and, at times, challenging.

This user-friendly guide to conservation practices on archaeological excavations covers both structures and artifacts, starting from the...The relationship between archaeology and conservation has long been complex and, at times, challenging.

Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. -Laurie Rush, a senior archeologist with the U.S. Army, has assembled a seminal book on the threat to important cultural sites from combat operations, and none too soon. Spurred by the tragic and unnecessary loss of artefacts and archaeology from the invasion of Iraq, she and her colleagues make a persuasive case that a minimum of common sense can not only protect this shared heritage but also enhance the likelihood that a military mission will succeed, and with fewer casualties. This book should be required reading for senior military and civilian leaders, not just in the United States but...

ISBN: 9789058679345 / Angielski / Miękka / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the last decade the technique of X-ray fluorescence has evolved from dependence on laboratory-based, stand-alone units to the field use of portable and lightweight handheld devices.

In addition, the low relative cost of handheld XRF has led many museums, academic institutions, and cultural centers to invest in the devices for routine materials analysis purposes. Although these... Over the last decade the technique of X-ray fluorescence has evolved from dependence on laboratory-based, stand-alone units to the field use of por... |

The Past in the Present: A Living Heritage Approach - Meteora, Greece
ISBN: 9781909188273 / Angielski / Twarda / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Past in the Present deals with the complexities in the operation and management of living heritage sites. It presents a new interpretation of such sites based on the concept of continuity, and its evolution to the present. It is demonstrated that the current theoretical framework and practice of conservation, as best epitomised in a values-based approach and the World Heritage concept, is based on discontinuity created between the monuments (considered to belong to the past) and the people of the present, thus seemingly unable to embrace living heritage sites. From this position, the...

ISBN: 9781909492196 / Angielski / Miękka / 98 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The conference papers contained in this volume explore the manner in which the significance of objects relates to their context(s).

Consideration is given to the challenges encountered in order to maintain a consistent approach between the intentions guiding the treatment of a setting and...
