Cooperative Venture

The editors would simply like to conclude our second issue, Archaeology and Ethnography of Cultural Heritage Management, by thanking the people who were instrumental in putting this issue together. Special thanks go to Paul Shackel and David Gadsby of the University of Maryland for recruiting experts in cultural heritage research and practice among their colleagues, and for prodding them along as needed. We also offer sincere thanks to Antoinette Jackson of the University of South Florida for providing the same kind of assistance with her students. This was truly a cooperative venture between two universities that are dedicated to promoting cooperation between archaeologists and cultural anthropologists in the protection and management of cultural resources and, as Cheryl White points out in her article, ultimately protecting people whose cultural integrity and lives are threatened. At a time when anthropology is increasingly threatened by division and fragmentation, it is nice to be reminded that ethnographers and archaeologists can come together to work on both scholarly, humanitarian and practical issues of great importance. Thirdly, we offer special thanks to Erve Chambers for providing an excellent overview of cultural heritage studies in his introduction to this issue. As always, thanks to Neil Hann for keeping us on track, dealing with last minute substitutions and getting everything to fit together.

The University

<p>Brisbane's major football venue, Lang Park, is undergoing a $280 million redevelopment. As part of this project the University of Queensland Archaeological Services Unit (UQASU) developed a cultural heritage management plan for the site. UQASU identified that the Lang Park site once housed a number of historic cemeteries, dating from the 1840s, and an early brick drain. These were assessed to be of high cultural heritage significance, and in 2000 UQASU formulated policies and strategies for their management. In 2001, UQASU began the salvage of those parts of the culturally significant elements that were to be deleteriously affected by earthworks and building activity. To date 397 burials have been exhumed.</p>

Do So

I was explicitly clear with everyone who became involved in the Homeless Heritage project that the intention was to present our findings publically in a number of ways. We did this by co-publishing articles in popular magazines and peer-reviewed journals, speaking at public meetings and academic conferences, and through co-curating two interactive public exhibitions on the heritage of homelessness. It was important to spread the ways in which our findings were presented across a variety of platforms so that our results reached diverse audiences; for example, John Schofield, my homeless colleagues, and I published co-authored articles in The Big Issue, and in British Archaeology, in the hope that our work might reach people outside academia. That said, we were equally keen to demonstrate that the Homeless Heritage project was just as valid as archaeological investigations into any other marginalized culture or period so we also published co-authored peer-reviewed papers in Public Archaeology, Post-Medieval Archaeology, and created, in collaboration with artist Mats Brate, a comic based on fieldwork for the Journal of Contemporary Archaeology. Further to this, various book chapters were co-produced for academic books,6 and I have since published a paper for the International Journal of Heritage Studies, which focused on how cultural heritage methodologies can function as tools for empowerment. I encouraged my homeless colleagues to co-present papers at a variety of conferences and public talks. Jane, Danny, Deano, and Whistler co-presented a paper entitled ‘Punks and Drunks: Counter Mapping Homeless Heritage’ at the conference of the Theoretical Archaeology Group (TAG) at the University of Bristol in 2010, while Andrew, Jane, Dan, and Mark co-presented a paper called ‘Stories from the Street: Contemporary Homelessness as Heritage’ at the Postgraduate Conference in Historical Archaeology at the University of Leicester Centre for Historical Archaeology in 2011. To me, it was essential that those homeless colleagues who wanted to remain involved with the project once fieldwork had been completed were given real opportunities to do so.

Abstract Much of Lesotho’s cultural heritage has been studied as a result of dam developments. Where dams have been built, heritage studies have provided crucial data for improving our understanding of local archaeological sequences. Ahead of the construction of the Lesotho Highland Development Authority’s (LHDA) new Polihali Dam in Lesotho’s Mokhotlong District and following the recommendations of a heritage assessment (CES 2014), a large-scale five-year cultural heritage management program was launched in 2018 that seeks to excavate and mitigate a number of heritage sites. Here, we provide the background to one of southern Africa’s largest heritage mitigation contracts by contextualising the current research program. We then present the archaeology of Lesotho’s eastern highlands basalt region using data collected during the inception phase of this program. The findings challenge current preconceived notions about the sparsity of archaeological remains for this region.

Cultural Resource

Cultural resource management, normally referred to as “CRM,” may be defined as cultural heritage management within a framework of federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and guidelines. Cultural heritage, in terms of cultural resource management, may be defined as those places, objects, structures, buildings, and evidence of past material culture and life that are important to understanding, appreciating, or preserving the past. CRM is similar to heritage programs in other countries, but the term and practice of CRM as defined here is unique to the United States. America’s concern with cultural resources was reflected early in the 20th century with passage of the American Antiquities Act of 1906, which authorized the president to establish national monuments of federally owned or controlled properties, and for the secretaries of the Interior, Agriculture, and the Army to issue permits for investigations of archaeological sites and objects on lands they controlled. The National Park Service was created in 1916 and assumed responsibility for cultural resources associated with national parks and monuments. Archaeology played a prominent role in the Works Progress Administration (WPA) and other relief programs during the Great Depression, and large-scale investigations that employed thousands were conducted across the country. Cultural resource management, as it is currently practiced, was a product of the environmental movement of the 1960s, when federal cultural resources were given the same level of protection as elements of the natural environment, such as wetlands and protected plant and animal species. Cultural resource management deals with a range of resource types, and the breadth of the field will be reflected in the discussions that follow.

Critical Overview

One of the most fundamental shifts in the cultural heritage sector, is to be found at the intersection established over the past years, between heritage management and the rapidly growing field of digital technology. In the wake of these developments, the striking majority of professionals in the heritage sector are faced with the challenge of integrating ICT technologies in various workings, functions and purposes of their field (i.e. preservation, restoration, recording, analysis, interpretation, publication, exhibition). At the same time, digital technologies are becoming an integral part of cultural management (project management, event management, collection management etc) but also of cultural communication and public outreach. The analytical significance of this project stems mainly from the fact that it constitutes the first systematized attempt to chart (both quantitatively and qualitatively) all postgraduate programs of study on cultural heritage that are available at present across Departments and Universities in both Greece and Cyprus. The combination of qualitative and quantitative analysis of heritage studies curricula in both countriesalso provides us with an elaborated and refined picture of the professional skills promoted by different academic curricula as regards ICT skills and their implementation in heritage studies. As such, this mapping enterprise can be a useful tool for analytically appreciating the connection between curriculum content andjob requirements and by extension, act as a starting point for creating a sustainable model of synergy between heritage studies and ICT in Greece and Cyprus for the next decades.

The City

In the summer of 2016, the Havana’s Historian Office and the Cultural Heritage Management research group of the Complutense University of Madrid carried out a field study and survey of the inhabitants of Old Havana. The objective was to identify the problems and necessities of the respected people, but in relation to their Cultural Heritage. Havana’s heritage management plan has been a paradigm of community involvement and participation for decades. The locals living in the city are aware of the importance of their heritage, they value it and it is part of their lives. However, there is also a growing scepticism among World Heritage Status of the city, the increasing mass tourism and the priorities on the restauration of buildings. A survey was carried out among different neighbours in the city that faced different realities and paradigms when it came to the nature of their heritage and the management of it. The survey focused on the perception of the people on the situation, not only their opinion on how the heritage was being managed, but also on how it influenced their lives. The views on the World Heritage defined basically two very different realities: the proud Havana, the one where the development is bringing benefits (cultural, economic, aesthetical…) and the sceptic one, the ones that wonder how a mess such as Old Havana could be heritage of humankind, when it is not local heritage.

Hiromitsu Takayama of Chiba University used (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 5000) the Itsuno-Corey protocol to reduce the enone 1 to the allylic alcohol 2. Peiming Gu of Ningxia University developed (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 5339) a Cu catalyst that cyclized the pro­chiral 3 to 4 in high ee. Xiaoming Feng of Sichuan University effected (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 3938) enantioselective Baeyer–Villiger oxidation of the racemic cyclopentanone 5, converting one enantiomer to the δ-lactone 6. The velocity of catalytic osmylation is often limited by slow turnover of the interme­diate osmate ester. Koichi Narasaka, then at the University of Tokyo, showed (Chem. Lett. 1988, 1721) that the efficiency of the transformation was improved by the addi­tion of stoichiometric phenyl boronic acid. Kilian Muñiz, now at ICIQ Tarragona, established (Chem. Eur. J. 2005, 11, 3951) that this acceleration also worked with Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation. D. Christopher Braddock of Imperial College London took advantage (Chem. Commun. 2014, 50, 13725) of these observations, converting myrcene 7 selectively to the cyclic boronate 8. Michael P. Doyle of the University of Maryland developed (J. Org. Chem. 2014, 79, 12185) a Rh catalyst for the ene reaction of 9 with 10 to give 11. Adriaan J. Minnaard of the University of Groningen devised (Chem. Eur. J. 2014, 20, 14250) a Cu cata­lyst that mediated the face selective addition of 13 to 12, establishing the oxygenated quaternary center of 14. Tomonori Misaki and Takashi Sugimura of the University of Hyogo used (Chem. Lett. 2014, 43, 1826) Michael addition of 15 to 16 to construct the oxygenated quaternary center of 17. Jon C. Antilla of the University of South Florida assembled (Chem. Commun. 2014, 50, 14187) the δ-lactone 20 by adding the diene 19 to the α-keto ester 18. Zhiyong Wang of the University of Science and Technology of China reported (Org. Lett. 2014, 16, 3564) related results. Jonathan A. Ellman of Yale University achieved (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2014, 53, 11329) substantial enantioselectivity in the addition of thioacetic acid 22 to the nitroalkene 21 to give 23. Subhash P. Chavan of the National Chemistry Laboratory prepared (Tetrahedron Lett. 2014, 55, 5905) the allylic amine 25 by reduction of the aziridine 24.

This work is part of the activities that were agreed within the scope of the University Network of the Latin American Route (UniRila), and was developed specifically as a proposal for Dossier II. This research is also linked to the development of the Master Plan of Porto Murtinho-MS, specifically the axis of Cultural Historical Heritage, the result of an inter-institutional partnership. In this context, the aim is to analyze current normative acts for the preservation of historical and cultural heritage in the three administrative spheres, using the qualitative approach methodology with bibliographic and documentary research. One of the great challenges of the Bioceanic Route Integration will be the efficient updating of policies for the preservation of the historical and cultural heritage, in order to maintain the cultural integrity of the local population. Thus, it is understood the need to stimulate local development, through cultural and social capital, aiming at a participatory democracy. Heritage education is part of this context as an instrument for disseminating information and knowledge, and when supported by public and private agents and social actors, they are certainly decisive in the struggle arising from issues related to cultural vulnerability.
