Impact of transparency in the design of protective structures for conservation of archaeological remains

Abstract: a b s t r a c tProtective structures are advantageous to extend the life of exposed remains and to display objects of cultural significance. A considerable number of shelters and enclosures have been constructed of transparent materials to enhance the display function. This study aims to examine the utilization of transparency in design of protective structures in terms of advantages and disadvantages. To fulfill this aim, a group of protective structures, which were completely transparent or with transparent … Show more

“…For example, it is necessary to carefully select the material based on thermophysical properties. In other studies, it is recommended to combine lighting to visualize things and that it has little impact on the objects for their full conservation (see Michalsky [6,18,19]).…”

“…The scientific literature provides several analyses on the conservation of archaeological sites exposed to solar radiation. Funda Yaka [17] considered the undoubted advantages of transparent protection but warned of the disadvantages and the need to carefully select the material according to its thermo-physical properties. In fact, the consequences of an excess of radiation were the trigger for the removal of the transparent protective structures of the Roman Villa at Piazza Armerina in Sicily (Italy) and the Fishbourne Roman Palace at West Sussex (England).…”
