Trends and Perspectives: Heritage At Risk (HARC)
Author(s): Kimberly L. Faulk
Year: 2019
Summary
This is an abstract from the "Trends and Perspectives: Heritage At Risk (HARC)" session, at the 2019 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology.
Wind, flood, and fire are affecting archaeological sites at seemingly greater rates than previously recorded. Cultural resource managers, researchers, and government agencies are dealing with the effect of stronger and more violent storms on cultural heritage as they try to map and protect archaeological sites both on land and underwater. This session pulls together a panel of experts from academia, cultural resource management professionals, and local, state and federal agencies. The discussion will focus on the impacts of environmental forces, how different agencies are addressing climate issues in their planning processes, and common misunderstandings around climate change and cultural heritage.
