Because human existence encompasses much more than documented history, this program employs archaeological and ethnographic approaches to investigate cultural heritage elements frequently omitted from conventional records and overlooked or suppressed in mainstream accounts. Cultural heritage represents the tangible and intangible inheritance from past societies that we utilize to shape our present reality and bequeath to posterity. It serves as a crucial factor in forming and expressing cultural identities across different levels, from personal to national, and often becomes a focal point of debate within diverse social movements.
