Abstract

In this work, we discuss how heritage science, i.e. the investigation branch in which advanced analytical techniques form the basis for characterizing the materials that compose the artistic and cultural artefacts, can widen its capacity to contribute towards the conservation of tangible heritage through field activities, particularly common in other sciences.

The careful observation of the different features of conservation areas complemented by the testimonial of local actors, the characterisation of their use and maintenance dynamics and of the various forms of the human interference on the properties that determine the environmental quality of such contexts as well as the ways human agents directly affect the artefacts, are some of the elements assessed in an analysis carried out supported by our experience and with the help of a repertory of personal images used to illustrate our view on the subject.
