Interview with Claudia Kraan. Cultural-historical landscapes on Bonaire: flexible and sustainable protection of heritage As the least populated of the ‘Benedenwindse Eilanden’, Bonaire still has many special landscapes. There, archaeologist Claudia Kraan is involved in drawing up policy documents in the context of the implementation of the Malta Convention for the Protection of the Archaeological Heritage. Part of this is a nomination file of some cultural-historical landscapes on Bonaire, based on the existing archaeological sites. Claudia is formally employed by the National Archaeological Anthropological Memory Management (NAAM), a nonprofit organization that is committed to the conservation, identification and research of the material and intangible heritage of Curaçao and Bonaire in a Caribbean perspective. In this interview Claudia Kraan gives us an insight in her work and the opportunities and barriers she sees in the protection of heritage of Bonaire.

Archaeological sites are affected by changes due to a natural deterioration process over time. If not prevented, this may compromise the functionality of the cultural property, and in turn become pathological and result in degradation. Monitoring through innovative technologies paves the way towards an effective planned maintenance activity and therefore preventive conservation. The monitoring project of the Parco Archeologico del Colosseo was inspired by the desire to build a system of protection and conservation at the service of sustainable exploitation. Established by Ministerial Decree 12 January 2017 in art. 3, the park is an independent cultural site of the Ministry of Culture. It includes the central area of Rome—the Roman Forum, the Palatine, the Colosseum and the Domus Aurea—and has an extension of about 77 hectares, of which about 32 are buildings. With these objectives, the Parco Archeologico del Colosseo has launched a static and dynamic monitoring project consisting of six fundamental levels of activities. The project involves the creation of a multi-parameter system of permanent control of the entire archaeological area, with the associated indicators of the level of risk, for which it is necessary the combined use of innovative technologies.

Los procesos de transformación del territorio en el Perú afectan la comprensión, protección y conservación de los sitios arqueológicos, desbordados por la intensidad y rapidez de los cambios. Sin embargo, los instrumentos de gestión patrimonial y territorial vigentes no facilitan espacios de integración del patrimonio arqueológico en las dinámicas territoriales actuales. El concepto de paisaje abre una oportunidad de alineación de sendas visiones sectoriales. En la región Lambayeque, en el norte del Perú, la elaboración de un diagnóstico territorial de su patrimonio arqueológico por el Ministerio de Cultura, permitiría ensayar una propuesta operativa del paisaje para la gestión de este patrimonio.Les processus de transformation du territoire au Pérou affectent la compréhension, la protection et la conservation des sites archéologiques, submergés par l’intensité et la vitesse des changements. Cependant, les instruments de gestion du patrimoine et du territoire ne fournissent pas d’espaces pour l’intégration du patrimoine archéologique dans les dynamiques territoriales actuelles. Le concept de paysage ouvre une opportunité d’aligner les visions sectorielles. Dans la région de Lambayeque, au nord du Pérou, l’élaboration d’un diagnostic territorial de son patrimoine archéologique par le ministère de la Culture, permettrait de tester une proposition de paysage opérationnelle pour la gestion de ce patrimoine.The understanding, protection and conservation of archaeological sites are overwhelmed by the strength and speed of territorial changes. However, heritage and territorial management tools do not integrate archaeological heritage into current territorial dynamics. The landscape concept is an opportunity to align both approaches. The Ministry of Culture of Peru has developed a territorial assessment of archaeological heritage in Lambayeque, North of Peru. It allows for a landscape operational approach to the heritage management.

Archaeological Heritage in the Context of Sustainable Development The concept of sustainable development is widely declared and used in contemporary scientific dis­course. Sustainability also refers to cultural and archaeological heritage. What is an important ele­ment of the contemporary conservation doctrine is a departure from the idea of protection of ar­chaeological heritage in favour of the rational management of such heritage, in accordance with the sustainable development rationale. It follows from the premise that, on the one hand, herit­age is a subject of protection, but, on the other hand, it constitutes potential that should be adapted to new conditions and used for cultural, social, and economic development. With the above-men­tioned concept as a starting point, the paper is aimed at analysing the role that archaeological her­itage resources can play in the context of sustainable development. As an example of good practic­es implementing the idea of sustainable development based on archaeological resources, I take and discuss archaeological tourism, because it aims to promote public interest in archaeology and the protection of archaeological sites.

The  article  presents  brightness  and  identity  of  ancient  and  medieval monuments  of  the  Tyumen  region  and  demonstrates  the  possibilities  of  their  use  in  the  development  of  the  tourist  industry  of  this  region,  which  was  distinguished  by  extensive  lowland  territories  and  a  convenient  transport  network.  The  high  concentration  of  archaeological  sites  on  certain  sites  surrounded  by  unique  natural  landscapes  allows  us  to  talk about  the  creation  of  natural  landscape  archaeological  complexes  as  synthesis  of  nature, archeology  and  architecture.  Particular  attention  is  paid  to  the  rich  archaeological  heritage  of  Tobolsk,  the  first  Russian  capital  of  Siberia,  the  need  to  organize  museum  and  tourist complexes in historically significant urban areas, free from any constructions.

The interest in archaeological heritage sites and the possibilities for the development of archaeological tourism have been growing in the world in recent decades. Monuments of archeology are a separate phenomenon in the cultural system and are considered as a separate phenomenon in the field of inheritance and preservation of cultural identity. Revenues from archaeological tourism can be used to preserve archaeological objects and for educational purposes, which actually contributes to the sustainability of archaeological sites, including environmental, social, cultural, political, economic and educational aspects. The need to study the spatial patterns of the distribution of archaeological sites has determined the active use of mapping methods. Geoinformation technologies allow integrating existing registers of archaeological sites and cartographic materials into a single structured geoinformation product. Numerous monuments of material culture, identified on the territory of the Southern Federal District, reflect the successive stages of the cultural and historical development of the macroregion from ancient times to the Middle Ages. Archaeological sites on the territory of the Southern Federal District are conventionally divided into funerary, settlement, and ritual-religious monuments and are of significant interest not only for archaeologists, but also for tourists. The aim of this work is the geoinformation identification of areas of archaeological tourism in the territory of the Southern Federal District. ArcGIS (ESRI) acts as the basic GIS- platform, the initial data are information from the Unified State Register of Cultural Heritage Sites (historical and cultural monuments) of the peoples of the Russian Federation. The territorial distribution of archaeological sites in the administrative-territorial units of the Southern Federal District reflects the degree of archaeological study of the territory and promising areas for the development of archaeological tourism.

Farming in a country like the Netherlands, which has a limited surface area, high land value and critical customers, is like walking a tightrope: a farmer is always the scapegoat when it comes to the societal consequences of the job. Archaeologists, for example, have problems with modern cultivation techniques, because they can demonstrably harm archaeological sites, yet the farming community is reluctant to accede to the archaeologists' requests, since it has many more (larger) issues to overcome. Predictive modelling as part of the development-led Dutch archaeology has not contributed to the desired mutual understanding. Yet there are signs of a growing willingness to listen to each other's needs, paralleled by developments in the environmental sector and the management of natural resources. Tentative projects to create a win-win situation for both farmers and archaeologists have been launched and even successfully carried out, but that is not enough. Archaeological heritage management requires permanent provisions, because the loss of information from the soil archive is irreversible. Attempts are being made to re-open the dialogue between farmers and archaeologists and bring about a more positive attitude on both sides. It is argued that severe actions are not effective in the Dutch polder.

We present the challenges facing Bulgarian experts in finding the balance between preserving the authenticity of archaeological structures and their context, and turning them into a comprehensible and attractive visitor site. Thanks to European funding over the past ten years, a number of projects have been implemented in Bulgaria for conservation, restoration, exhibition and public presentation of archaeological heritage, where the main aim is to achieve a complete visitor product. The economic and social effect, on the one hand, has a positive impact as an inspiration for archaeological research and the popularisation of this type of cultural heritage, but has led to a compromise of the scientific value at some sites. We note some examples to illustrate the combined role of experts, participants and stakeholders in their 'reading' and 'translating' the archaeology – seeking to generate interest, clarify and convey the experience of 'genius loci'. The role of the state in the management of archaeological heritage is examined through its different governmental levels and interaction. The requirements imposed by legislation and practice are also observed. First, the development of the archaeological heritage conservation system in Bulgaria will be briefly reviewed, its current state of the processes, its actors and the interactions between them, the positive and the negative aspects, and, in more detail, the problems we face in preserving authenticity while turning the archaeological site into an attractive one. Then we focus on our main topic; the authenticity and the attractiveness of archaeological sites in Bulgaria.
