This underwater archaeological research has the mission of recording of a submerged medieval settlement which is not mentioned or photographed anywhere in the academic literature. The mission has started on year 2005 and it has been sponsored by İstanbul Technical University. The historical submerged settlement under the Hazar lake is the focus of our underwater survey and is located at the western end of the lake 3 km. away from town Sivrice, Elazığ. Area of underwater research covers 2,5 km.2 around the Kilise (“Church” in Turkish) island which takes place southwestern extremity of the Lake Hazar. Lake Hazar(Tzovk) taking place at Eastern Anatolia lies approximately 30 km. southeast of Elazığ city in the township of Sivrice which is at the western extremity of the lake. It becomes deeper at its eastern end near the town of Gezin. The lake at the foot of Mount Hazarbaba, is 7 kilometers wide and 22 kilometers long and its deepest point is 230 meters (measured by sub-bottom profiler during 2006 survey)which is the second deepest lake of modern Turkey . According to our original research, the earliest findings in the area can be dated to Late Roman Period where as most of the findings are dated to 11-12th centuries with the help of the typological analysis and written historical sources about the related settlement. This study unveils an important example of medieval architecture and ceramics belonging to a region that has not been sufficiently investigated in Upper Euphrates region in Eastern Anatolia. The information about the sunken settlement of the Hazar Lake-Elazığ, can be compiled from the legends, geographers' analysis and the books written by travelers. However, the lack of prior archaeological researches belonging to the area, restricts the literature on this subject. The publications as a result of our researched fills a gap in the literature related to that area.

Arheologija, arheobotanika, kulinarika in obrt od prazgodovine do odkritja Novega sveta v povezavi s kulturnim turizmom avstrijske Štajerske in severovzhodne Slovenije. / Archäologie, Archäobotanik, Küche und Kunsthandwerk von der Vorgeschichte bis zur Entdeckung der Neuen Welt im Zusammenhang mit dem Kulturtourismus in der Steiermark und im Nordosten Sloweniens.

Arheološka dediščina je neskončen vir znanja in navdiha. To velja tudi za arheološke sledove razvoja kmetijstva in kulturne krajine med kameno dobo in koncem srednjega veka, ki so bili pod drobnogledom večletnega čezmejnega projekta PalaeoDiversiStyria – paleokrajina Štajerske in njena biodiverziteta od prazgodovine do odkritja Novega sveta. Ob kratki predstavitvi projekta sledi predstavitev nekaterih pomembnejših najdišč projektnega območja, ki časovno segajo od mlajše kamene oz. bakrene dobe do srednjega veka in v veliki meri vključujejo tudi rezultate analiz rastlinskih in/ali živalskih ostankov. A sledi še pomembnejši in zanimivejši (ter okusnejši) del pričujoče publikacije. V poglavju "Živa arheologija" so najprej predstavljene številne rastline, ki so bile na projektnem območju odkrite pri arheoloških izkopavanjih, nato pa so jih prepoznali paleobotaniki. Pod naslovom "Okusna in uporabna arheologija" pa se skriva tisto, kar je pri tem projektu pomembna novost. Arheološko dediščino smo poskušali prenesti v sedanjost in prihodnost ter jo narediti uporabno, otipljivo, dišečo in okusno. Čakajo vas torej jedi, pijače in drugi izdelki, ki jih je navdihnila arheologija. Ker knjiga prinaša tudi recepte, se na primer lahko v pripravi jedi preizkusite sami ali pa se odpravite do katerega izmed ponudnikov v Avstriji ali Sloveniji in se pustite razvajati z okusi preteklosti. Lahko pa si pri njih priskrbite sestavine in končne izdelke, ki imajo svoj izvor v arheoloških dognanjih in so zato označeni z znakom blagovne znamke HERITERRA.

Das archäologische Erbe ist eine unendliche Quelle des Wissens und der Inspiration. Dies gilt auch für archäologische Spuren der Entwicklung der Landwirtschaft und der Kulturlandschaft zwischen der Steinzeit und dem Ende des Mittelalters, die im Rahmen des mehrjährigen grenzüberschreitenden Projekts PalaeoDiversiStyria – Paläolandschaft der Steiermark und ihre Biodiversität von der Urgeschichte bis zu Entdeckung der Neuen Welt. Einige der Ergebnisse dieses Projekts werden in der vorliegenden Publikation zusammengefasst. Nach einer kurzen Vorstellung des Projekts werden einige der wichtigsten Fundorte des Projektgebietes, die sich über den Zeitraum von der jüngeren Steinzeit bzw. von der Kupferzeit bis zum Mittelalter erstrecken, und zu einem großen Teil auch die Ergebnisse von Analysen der Pflanzen- und/oder Tierreste vorgestellt. Aber der wichtigere und interessantere (und schmackhaftere) Teil dieser Veröffentlichung ist wohl folgender: Im Kapitel „Lebende Archäologie“ werden zunächst die zahlreichen Pflanzen vorgestellt, die bei archäologischen Ausgrabungen im Projektgebiet entdeckt und anschließend von Paläobotanikern/innen identifiziert wurden. Unter dem Titel „Geschmackvolle und nützliche Archäologie“ versteckt sich eine wichtige Innovation in unserem Projekt. Wir haben versucht, das archäologische Erbe auf die Gegenwart und die Zukunft zu übertragen und es nützlich, greifbar, duftend und lecker zu machen. Hier kann man von der Archäologie inspirierte Speisen, Getränke und andere Produkte finden. Da das Buch auch Rezepte enthält, können Sie selbst versuchen, die Gerichte zuzubereiten – oder Sie können zu einem unserer Anbieter in Österreich oder Slowenien gehen und dort die Aromen und Geschmackserlebnisse der Vergangenheit genießen. Sie erhalten dort auch Zutaten und Fertigprodukte, die ihren Ursprung in archäologischen Erkenntnissen haben und mit der Marke HERITERRA gekennzeichnet sind.

Case Study Background.

World Wide Fund (WWF-SPP) had overall logistic responsibilities for project implementation, organizing meetings and workshops, housing the project and reporting to Asian Development Bank.

A Project Team (PT) consisting of a team leader with field specialization in Strategic Environment Analysis- SEA (Roger Levett), a tourism specialist (Manoa Malani), and a socio-economist (Richard McNally) were recruited to conduct the case study.

This team performed specific tasks like: compiling of relevant data and information; conducting public meetings and relevant consultations; and writing the SEA reports.

Based on their findings, they put forward a number of recommendations to the Government and to the tourism industry (particularly in reorienting the Fiji Tourism Development Plan (1998–2005) in 2003 to make it more viable and responsive to the environment) as well as to ADB, on measures needed to ensure sustainable tourism in Fiji Islands.

A Project Coordination Team (PCT) acted as an advisory group and backstopped all relevant tasks undertaken by the PT. The PCT composed of representatives from the WWF–SPP itself, the Tourism industry, the Ministry of Tourism and Transport, the Ministry of Local Government, Housing and Environment, NGOs, the University of the South Pacific, and the Fiji Visitors’ Bureau.

As part of the close collaboration between WWF-SPP and the Ministry of Tourism, Mr. Manoa Malani of the Project Team was responsible for all aspects of the assessment related to Tourism. Mr. Malani also worked closely with the other project team members. Together with the other team members, Mr. Malani also liaised closely with WWF, ADB, and the Project Coordinating Team.

Specific tasks were as follows:

1) As a member of the project team, help carry out the Strategic Environmental Assessment of Fiji Tourism Development Plan (1998–2005) (TDP);

2) Examine the Government’s regulatory framework and institutional set-up, particularly the strengths and weaknesses of the planning process relative to tourism, and ascertain its impacts on sustainable tourism development. Initially assess the likely development of the tourism industry in the country
without the TDP (1998-2005);

3) Identify [if necessary] possible changes needed in existing tourism policies and strategies, as well as their application to ensure maximization of tourism industry potentials, now and into the future; and outline reasons why these changes are needed; and

4) Formulate recommendations on policy and planning measures that need to be incorporated into the TDP (1998–2005) and associated development and sectoral plans, policies and programs.

Time Frame:

The specific tasks outlined above were carried out intermittently over 15 calendar days of consultant time, particularly on tourism aspects. The study took place between March 17th and April 22nd 2003.

Urban regeneration is often regarded as the process of renewal or redevelopment of spaces and places. There is a need to look at tourism and urban regeneration with a particular focus on cultural heritage. Cultural heritage consists of tangible heritage (such as historic buildings) and intangible heritage (such as events). The wider need and impact for such work is that places plan for change to keep up with the shifts in demand in the global economy in order for places to maintain a competitive advantage. Moreover, places need to keep up with the pace of global change or they risk stagnation and decline as increased competition is resulting in increased opportunities and choice for consumers. Each chapter in this book explores a specific form of cultural heritage that is driving change in urban spaces. Intended for a wide readership, the book will appeal to students of urban studies, human geography, heritage studies and international tourism management, as well as experts conducting research in and across these areas.
