Summary: | The study of urban archaeology includes an experimental phase carried out in daily life, with a tremendous influence on management methods of urban environment. Archaeologists have now become common players in the development of the city. It is widely known that in recent years the growing tensions have something to do with the difficult economic times. However, the ever-growing reluctance and rhetoric identifying archaeology as a hindrance to economic development and to the future of the city is firstly a misunderstanding. This misguided view has been a common belief since the rise of preventive and urban archaeologies. Input of archeological activity in the heart of cities is usually based on a patrimonial or cultural ground. This is indeed a more legible answer, which the preventive archaeologists have come out with. We must consider whether this is enough. Is defining urban archaeology not taking precedent where the social idea of urban planning is being utilized and renewed? |
