Archaeological heritage conservation is all too often highly conflicted. Economic interests are often at the forefront of management decision-making with heritage values given lesser, if any, consideration, but when heritage places are managed with international principles in mind the sites stand out as evidencing superior outcomes.

Conservation Practices on Archaeological Excavations
Author: Corrado Pedelì
Publisher: Getty Publications
ISBN: 1606061585
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 170
Book Description
The relationship between archaeology and conservation has long been complex and, at times, challenging. Archaeologists are often seen as interested principally in excavation and research, while conservators are concerned mainly with stabilization and the prevention of deterioration. Yet it is often initial conservation in the field that determines the long-term survival and intelligibility of both moveable artifacts and fixed architectural features. This user-friendly guide to conservation practices on archaeological excavations covers both structures and artifacts, starting from the moment when they are uncovered. Individual chapters discuss excavation and conservation, environmental and soil issues, deterioration, identification and condition assessment, detachment and removal, initial cleaning, coverings and shelters, packing, and documentation. There are also eight appendixes. Geared primarily for professionals engaged in the physical practice of excavation, this book will also interest archaeologists, archaeological conservators, site managers, conservation scientists, museum curators, and students of archaeology and conservation.

La Conservation en archéologie
Author: Marie-Claude Berducou
Publisher: FeniXX
ISBN: 240233990X
Category : History
Languages : fr
Pages : 486
Book Description
Le premier objectif de cet ouvrage collectif, est de rassembler - et d'exposer clairement - les principaux aspects de la conservation des objets archéologiques, depuis les principes auxquels elle se rattache, jusqu'à ses modalités pratiques, en incluant - de façon résumée - la connaissance des matériaux archéologiques sur lesquels elle agit. Les treize auteurs, tous des spécialistes dans leur domaine, issus d'instituts de recherche, de centres de formation, de musées, laboratoires et ateliers français, ont poursuivi un triple but : - contribuer à la formation des étudiants en archéologie (nature des matériaux, rappels technologiques, apports de la conservation-restauration à leur discipline) ; - créer un instrument utile, concrètement, aux archéologues de terrain, et aux responsables de collections archéologiques ; - créer un instrument de formation et de mise à jour des connaissances, destiné aux conservateurs-restaurateurs. Interventions sur le chantier, traitements de conservation et de restauration des principaux matériaux trouvés en fouille (céramique, verre, métaux, matériaux organiques, mosaïques, peintures murales, architecture), conservation dans les dépôts et les réserves de musées : onze chapitres s'efforcent de décrire les causes et les conséquences de l'altération des vestiges archéologiques, de présenter une sélection des méthodes utilisables pour les sauvegarder, et de montrer l'enjeu que la conservation de ces vestiges constitue pour notre patrimoine et notre connaissance du passé.
