The cross-analysis of the unpublished data kept in Roman archives and the newspapers edited at the turn of the XIX and XX century threw light on a crucial chapter of Roman Forum and Palatine topography. The research carried to the identification of a corpus
consisting of 123 pictures from 74 shots, that we can attribute to six major rises, occurred between 1899 and 1909. This first civil application of a science originally born in the military field generated a connection between military and archaeological science for the knowledge and protection of archaeological heritage, reaching a level of excellence internationally recognized and applicated.

Ensuring the Viability of Cultural Heritage: The Role of International Heritage Law for Pacific Island States

Many island societies now face the challenges of severe depopulation and loss of indigenous culture. In some cases,... more Many island societies now face the challenges of severe depopulation and loss of indigenous culture. In some cases, where the value of indigenous knowledge, nature and culture is widely recognized - as in the case of islands that are designated as, or have, Biosphere Reserves or World Heritage Sites - these challenges may be overcome. Even with such protections local cultures are often displaced by excessive tourist visitations, and the resulting ecosystem degradation and cultural commoditization. How best to manage and conserve the natural and cultural beauty, identity and diversity of islands? 'Island Futures' provides an extensive and unique critical examination of 'special island places' from around the world. Case study material is largely drawn from South-East Asia and the Pacific (Galapagos, Hawaii, Indonesia, Japan, Jeju, Okinawa, Solomons, Taiwan). Distinct chapters consider the political, institutional, economic, legal, cultural, ecological, and community dynamics involved in island futures.Island Futures

In the Camera's Lens: An Interview with Brian Fagan and Francis Pryor

Having written
extensively on many archaeological themes for academic and
public audiences, public archaeology in the United States and
the UK has grown and matured through their combined experience and would be much the poorer today if not for their continued passion and energy. When placed together in the
following interview (carried out via email correspondence in
the summer and early winter 2005), their views regarding current
themes from ‘archaeology and the media’ offer insightful
glimpses into the connections and distinctions between British
and American perspectives.

While conducting these projects, the researchers where interested in presenting to the community of Quillagua what archaeological research is all about beyond the scientific audience. This experience continues a line of work –which has been conducted for several years in the Upper Loa region– emphasises to maintain a fluid relationship between archaeologists and local communities. This relationship has led the communities to report cases of looting and destruction of archaeological sites, thus allowing to protect more effectively the cultural heritage of the region.

Introduction: Archaeology and the Media

Archaeology is more prevalent in the media today than ever before. Likewise, the media is more prevalent in archaeology than has previously been experienced. Media is both the means to mass communication and the material agency by which that communication is transmitted, transferred, or conveyed. Different media have impacted upon archaeology in different ways, and a future relationship with the media lies in an uncertain balance with the emergence of the digital era of technology. What has archaeology’s relationship with the media looked like in the past, what are the issues at stake in this relationship today, and is archaeology suitably equipped for this partnership in a future of increasingly rapid information transfers?
