Ameeting of experts dealing with the UNESCO World Heritage, attended by 37 participants from 13 countries, was held in Wroclaw on 14-15 September 2007. The session was organised by the National Heritage Board of Poland in the name of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre and the Minister of Culture and National Heritage. The states-signatories of the UNESCO convention on the protection of the world cultural and natural heritage are obligated to present reports on the realisation of the convention’s resolutions. The first series of the European Regular Report was conducted in 2003-2006. The Wroclaw conference was the first meeting of the representatives of Central and East European countries, dedicated to continuing undertakings stemming from the Regular Report. Subsequently, it became a forum for an exchange of experiences and joint conclusions. In view of the fact that the Report encompasses the earliest entries on the UNESCO World Heritage List, the participants of the meeting asserted the necessity of supplements which, in the first stage, are to explain the limits of the included site and its protective sphere and then discuss the criteria according to which it had been originally placed on the List. Subsequent tasks entail defining the exceptional merits of a given site. The meeting also considered plans for a system of administering the world heritage sites. The participants stressed unanimously that a suitable pronouncement of the significance of a site and its exceptional value forms a basis for effective administration. The conference included a tour of the Centennial Hall in Wrocław, together with the adjoining exposition area – the most recent Polsh site to be included onto the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Already 851 sites representing exceptional universal merits have found themselves on the UNESCO World Heritage List, created upon the basis of the 1972 UNESCO convention on the protection of the world cultural and natural heritage. The decision-making body within the convention is the Committee. The 31st session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee was held on 23 June-2 July 2007 in Christchurch (New Zealand). More than 800 representatives of 184 convention member states, state institutions and NGOs attended the meeting. The Committee decided to add to the UNESCO World Heritage List 22 new sites. It also made an unprecedented decision to strike from the list the Arabian Oryx Sanctuary in Oman, due to a reduction of the terrain and the falling number of the antelopes. The most important decision concerning world heritage sites in Poland pertained to the changed name of the Auschwitz Concentration Camp. According to the proposal made by the Committee the new name is now composed of two parts, the main component being: “Auschwitz Birkenau”, followed by a description: ”German Nazi concentration and death camp (1940-1945)”. The Committee also accepted a pronouncement of the site’s significance – a document describing the site and justifying its inclusion on the List within the context of selected criteria. All the sites are obligated to prepare a pronouncement defining their exceptional and universal merits. The purpose of this duty and the explanation of the limits of the entry are to introduce order into the UNESCO World Heritage List and to draw attention to the state of the preservation of particular sites. Those activities were inaugurated within the framework of the Regular Report in 2003-2006. The 32nd session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee will take place in Quebec (Canada) on 2-10 July 2008.

The case being studied is one of Bolivia’s most important monuments – El Fuerte de Samaipata, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This paper proposes a new workflow for the two most important aspects of studies on cultural heritage – detailed documentation and analysis. The former includes the well-known techniques of digital photogrammetry and structured light scanning. The latter comprises polynomial texture mapping (PTM) and reflectance transformation imaging (RTI), both of which have been used since the beginning of this century. The novelty proposed by the authors is the transfer of part of the data collection process from the physical environment to the virtual space. Despite some technical problems, by eliminating the tedious and time-consuming process of shooting photos in the field using specific lighting angles, this new workflow proved to be very efficient, particularly in documenting and interpreting badly preserved examples of bas-relief rock art.

El Fuerte de Samaipata to jeden z najważniejszych zabytków Boliwii wpisanych na Listę Światowego Dziedzictwa UNESCO. W artykule przedstawiono dwa sposoby dokumentacji, szczególnie istotne zarówno dla badań, jak i ochrony dziedzictwa kulturowego. Pierwszy obejmuje dobrze znane techniki cyfrowej fotogrametrii i skanowania światłem strukturalnym. Drugi dotyczy zastosowania technik polynomial texture mapping (PTM) oraz reflectance transformation imaging (RTI). Obie techniki są wprawdzie stosowane już od początku tego wieku, ale nowością zaproponowaną przez autorów jest przeniesienie części procesu zbierania danych ze środowiska fizycznego do przestrzeni wirtualnej. Mimo pewnych problemów technicznych, dzięki wyeliminowaniu żmudnego i czasochłonnego etapu fotografowania w terenie przy użyciu dokładnie zdefiniowanych kątów oświetlenia, zaproponowana metoda okazała się bardzo wydajna, szczególnie w dokumentowaniu i interpretacji silnie zniszczonych przykładów rytów naskalnych.

Samaipata, or more precisely El Fuerte de Samaipata, is a pre-Hispanic archaeological site of approximately 40 ha located in Bolivia, on the eastern slopes of the Andes. Due to its artistic and historical importance, the site was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1998.The importance of El Fuerte de Samaipata and the history of the investigations of this emblematic place have been the subject of numerous works. This text summarises the main stages of the studies of the site, particularly of the rock, from the first information in Colonial sources of the 16thcentury to the most current research carried out by Bolivian and foreign scholars. Special emphasis is given to the documentation and preservation programs of the petroglyphs, which are deteriorating due to environmental and anthropic factors.

Samaipata, a ściślej El Fuerte de Samaipata, to przedhiszpańskie stanowisko archeologiczne o powierzchni około 40 ha, położone w Boliwii na wschodnich zboczach Andów. W 1998 r. miejsce to ze względu na swoje znaczenie artystyczne i historyczne zostało wpisane na Listę Światowego Dziedzictwa UNESCO. Znaczenie El Fuerte de Samaipata i historia badań tego wyjątkowego zespołu były już przedmiotem licznych studiów. Ten tekst podsumowuje wyniki głównych etapów prac na tym stanowisku, zwłaszcza te dotyczące samej skały, od pierwszych informacji w źródłach kolonialnych z XVI w. poczynając, po najbardziej aktualne opracowania boliwijskich i zagranicznych badaczy. Szczególny nacisk kładzie się na dokumentację i programy ochrony petroglifów, których stan zachowania pogarsza się z powodu czynników środowiskowych i antropogenicznych.

Since time immemorial Ukraine has been the center of Eastern Christianity. Many temples were built in Kiev and towns nearby. The ones which survived until this day are treated as the most valuable national historic objects. In the whole country, despite the fact that religious life was being ruined in various periods, especially in the east during Soviet times, many religious historic objects exist. After Ukraine regained independence, the number of voices favoring the protection of cultural heritage began increasing. An appropriate legislation system was created, the state and individual regions readily started joining in to protect and restore historic objects, believers commenced helping with the work related with religious objects. Many good examples of church, orthodox church, monastery and wooden religious architecture restoration can be given. However, the consciousness of congregations and the representatives of the clergy is not always at theappropriate standard. Frequently, the urge to make a profit, the use of wrong technology, or the dishonesty of contractors lead historic objects – the witnesses of our history – to destruction. To improve the level of protection of historic religious objects, the dialogue between society and the clergy has to be broadened, specialists’ activity in the field must be supported, and legalregulations need to be refined.

The study describes the results of the documentation of El Fuerte de Samaipata, a pre-Hispanic archaeological site in Bolivia on the UNESCO World Heritage List. It summarizes the most recent observations of the carvings on the rock of Samaipata, which, due to progressing erosion, are slowly vanishing. Thanks to modern documentation technologies, laser scanning, structural light scanning, digital photogrammetry, and advanced digital analysis of images and 3D models of the site, all still visible traces of petroglyphs as well as “architectural” elements like terraces, platform, niches and seats have been documented and described.

The Conservation Analyses Department was established by the order of the Director of the National Centre for Research and Documentation of Monuments dated 6 June 2010. The Department comprised the Team of Experts and the Conservation Policy Formation Workshop. The Department co-ordinates and supervises work connected with the preparation of opinions and expertises regarding the protection of non-movable and movable monuments for public administration authorities – the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, Voivodeship Offices for Monument Protection and their branches and local government conservators. It carries out its tasks with the help of local divisions representing the National Heritage Board of Poland. The definite majority of issued opinions concerns the evaluation of the level of preservation of the value of historic objects or areas during administrative procedures being conducted by the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage with regard to deletions from the register of monuments. The Conservation Analyses Department co-ordinates the implementation of the procedure for acknowledgement of a historic object as a history monument and participates in work regarding the creation and dissemination of standards of documentation, research and conservation of historic objects. The activity of the Department in the field of protection of historic parks and gardens is particularly worth mentioning. It includes, among others, study and design works carried out in Branicki’s Garden in Białystok from 2006 till 2009 and the preparation of conservation requests and the resulting projects of regeneration of the palace park in Białowieża and the park in Trzebiny. The palace & park layout in Trzebiny is currently administered by the National Heritage Board of Poland – the Local Workshop in Trzebiny. An important task ordered by the Minister of Culture and National Heritage is the management of the regeneration of Muskau Park. Over 20 years’ period of regeneration works is a significant yet still fragmentary process of restoration of the full historical value of the park. The Institute is also responsible for the creation and putting into common use of standards of documentation, elaborations and manuals regarding the protection of cultural heritage that are addressed to a wide group of recipients, an example of which is the Methodological guide to the elaboration of communal monument care programmes. The international co-operation with Eastern states has been carried out by NHBP and its predecessors for many years, including the „Nieśwież Academy” Postgraduate Summer School and cooperation with the Trakai Historical National Park in Lithuania. All activities being handled by the Conservation Analyses Department of the National Heritage Board of Poland are subject and may become subject to modifications, depending on the orders of the Ministry of Culture and National Heritage, the needs of voivodeship monument conservators and other institutions and the emerging topics that must be solved urgently. Currently the Conservation Analyses Department employs 14 persons. They build an interdisciplinary team consisting of a group of historians of art, monument experts – conservators, landscape architects, an architect and a lawyer – persons with a large professional experience and significant achievements.
