This paper explores the role of archaeological heritage in the context of sustainable development of the territory and its integration in the local community through different spatial models of presentation and interpretation developed for the Sesvete administrative area (a suburban district of Zagreb, the capital of Croatia) as an outcome of the EU project IPA SL-HR in 2015. The aim was to achieve long-term preservation, visibility and enhancement of archaeological heritage through its territorial interpretation, to strengthen local identity, to achieve social cohesion and to develop cultural tourism based on archaeological heritage assets. The authors recognize the importance of multiple values assessment of the territory as a factor that affects decisions in the process of defining the archaeological heritage models of territorial presentation and interpretation. This approach implies determination of a wider range of values by other specialists responsible for the archaeological heritage management, primarily heritage professionals and town/spatial planners. The proposed presentation models combine heritage conservation aims and urban and spatial planning views. |
