On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we are pleased to invite you to attend
the Workshop on the Conservation of the Subterranean Cultural Heritage, to be
held in Seville, Spain. The workshop is organized by the Spanish Network of
Science and Technology for the Conservation of Cultural Heritage
(TechnoHeritage).
The objective of the workshop is to promote an interdisciplinary forum for
discussion on all aspects on the conservation of the subterranean cultural
heritage, providing at the same time an up-to-date and comprehensive picture
of the state-of-the-art of most recent investigations.
The ultimate aims is to strengthen the foundation of scientific and technological
research, overcoming the barriers of exchanging information that not always is
published in scientific journals.
The participation of researchers and professionals from the archeology-historyconservation-maintenance-restoration areas and the architectural-sciencesengineering areas will stimulate cooperation and integration between otherwise
heterogeneous fields.
The official languages of the Congress are English/Spanish with simultaneous
translation. In addition to the invited lectures two poster sessions will be
scheduled. Poster size: 90 cm x 120 cm. Length of the papers from poster
comunications: six pages (see attached template).
A Workshop proceeding (English) will be published and a copy of the book will
be sent to full delegates around eight months after the Workshop. The book will
include the invited lectures and the posters presented at the Workshop. The
