Sonnenuntergang über Perperikon
Hinter dem markanten Festungsturm aus dem 12. bis 14. Jhd versinkt die Sonne als glutroter Feuerball hinter den Hügeln. Noch bleibt die Wärme des Tages spürbar, während der Wind schon erste Kühle bringt.

Die Wege von Perperikon spiegeln heutige Restaurierungsarbeit und Pflege des Geländes. Moderne Holzstege und Geländer sichern den Zugang, ohne die Atmosphäre der Anlage zu stören.

#Archaeology is a driver of scientific innovation. Rather than being a perceived financial burden, it is actually a high-value investment that can improve human health and environmental sustainability.
We can use ancient #genomes to understand the genetic origins of diseases like MS or the evolution of the plague to develop new treatments.
Sequencing ancient plant #DNA to identify crop varieties that survived extreme heat or drought in the past, can help secure future food supplies.
Tracking how #diseases jump from animals to humans (zoonosis) to predict and prevent future #pandemics is critical to #publichealth.
Physical artifacts can be used to improve life satisfaction for hospital patients and those living with hashtag#dementia.
Archaeological #archives are a treasure-house of hashtag#biological and #environmental data that cannot be replicated in a lab. These materials provide a unique natural experiment that can play their part in solving modern global crises.

Legacy and Springboard: The Untapped Potential of Archaeological Archives for Scientific Innovation

Archaeological archives form a public resource that enables the reinterpretation of original findings from archaeological investigations, provides the raw material for further research, informs museum displays and teaching collections, and gives society access to the evidence for our shared past. But archaeological archives have remarkable potential to support research in other disciplines and in so doing help meet a number of global challenges. This paper provides case studies of this potential and sets out some suggestions as to how this knowledge dividend can be unleashed to create tangible public benefit.
