8 – 14 décembre, Rome, Italie: The Sixth International Conference on Science and Technology in Archaeology and Conservation
While documentation has long been recognised as an important tool for Cultural Resource Management and the Conservation and Preservation of CH sites and artifacts, it is gaining more and more importance in Risk Management, not only in the case of naturally occurring threats such as weathering, flashfloods, corrosion and earthquakes, but in anthropogenic agents. This is especially true of threats caused by Wars and Terrorism.
Therefore this conference will focus on new methods of documenation, digital or othererwise, how these processes serve the purpose of protection of the Cultuarl Heritage and how this is especially useful before, duirng, and after conflicts occur. Case studies, where documentation has specifically helped in the protection of the CH, are important. Furthermore, in view of WATCH's special interests, contributions related to other means for protection against war and terrorism will also be accepted.
