Is the loss of our Underwater Cultural Heritage accelerating? The term “underwater cultural heritage” (UCH) refers to all remnants of human activities lying on the seabed, on riverbeds, or at the bottom of lakes. It includes shipwrecks and artifacts lost at sea and extends to prehistoric sites, sunken towns, and ancient ports that were once on dry land but now are submerged due to manmade, clim...

Digital games are a rapidly growing cultural and social phenomenon. Game artists, museologists, and scientists with a background in 3D Visualisation, Creative Games, Heritage Studies, and Museum and Heritage Exhibition Design joined forces for a project to implement a complex structure of socio-historical knowledge about a tudor building in Manchester as a computer game. The project investigate...

Based on the hypothesis that disaster risk is constructed socially and historically, this article shows the importance of keeping alive the historical memory of disaster by means of architectural and urban heritage conservation. This is illustrated with three examples of Latin American World Heritage cities, where disasters like floods and earthquakes have shaped urban form. Therefore, the stud...

While a vibrant and growing research literature exists on the value of GIS to archaeology in general, application geospatial digital data subfield historical is less well developed, especially North America. This particularly true for era industrialization, where archaeological record accompanied by comparatively rich record. Historical industrial are fundamentally bound up interplay between ma...

the phenomenon of intertextuality is the important phenomena critique at contemporary critics. it is a common relationship between two texts or number of texts in an evoking manner. contemporary critics consider this phenomenon of different aspects such as sources, forms and species. religion and religious heritage of the most important sources that inspired poets and writers since ancient and ...

Historical building conservation raises two important issues which are documentation and refurbishing. For the recording and documentation, we already have developed 3d laser scanner and such photogrammetry technology those represent a freeze object of virtual reality by digital documentation. On the other hand, the refurbished engineering of historic building is a challenge for conservation he...

We review the status of marine shellfish ecosystems formed primarily by bivalves in Australia, including: identifying ecosystem-forming species, assessing their historical and current extent, causes for decline and past and present management. Fourteen species of bivalves were identified as developing complex, three-dimensional reef or bed ecosystems in intertidal and subtidal areas across trop...

Archival collections are important in preserving our historical heritage. An example of a new archival collection in high-altitude physiology and medicine is described. Physiologists should be more aware of the historical value of primary material and should be encouraged to offer their papers to an appropriate archival repository.

Protection and preservation of our cultural and literary historical and documentary heritage are particularly relevant today. The paper presents methods for creating digital resources of historical artifacts related to the Balkan war. Special attention is paid to the process of 3D scanning of objects. The methodology will be used in building an electronic archive and Virtual Museum.
