“…The geodiversity concept was proposed in the beginning of the 1990s in Australia (Gray 2004;Zwolinski 2004;Serrano and Flaño 2007), emerging as a new topic in earth sciences (Hjort and Luoto 2010). This concept, considered the abiotic equivalent of biodiversity (Crofts 2014), was mainly addressed to those who worked with territorial management (Johansson et al 1999). Despite being considered the foundation of the ecosystem (Santucci 2005) and a valuable environment asset (Stace and Larwood 2006), geodiversity has not achieved the same level of development and reconnaissance that biodiversity did (Xuelei et al 2003).…”

“…There are several definitions for geodiversity (e.g., Sharples 1995;Eberhard 1997;Johansson 2000;Stanley 2001;Nieto 2001;Australian Heritage Commission 2002;Gray 2004;Kozlowski 2004;Serrano and Flaño 2007), in which geological, geomorphological, and soil features are considered the most important elements of it. However, there is no agreement on a definition that could be used in an international convention on geodiversity, as suggested by Crofts (2014). Without this agreement, crucial measures concerning a global strategy for geodiversity are much more difficult to implement, even if geodiversity has now a strong theoretical and conceptual status (Gray 2008).…”

“…Para Crofts (2014), progressos realizados na promoção da geodiversidade, nos últimos anos, mostram que ela é agora considerada um componente estabelecido das Ciências da Terra, porem, ainda falta o status e posição de biodiversidade em fóruns governamentais, políticos e públicos. Brilha (2016) propõe uma nova abordagem aos conceitos de geodiversidade, patrimônio geológico e geoconservação e o que merece destaque nessa evolução conceitual é que apenas uma parte da geodiversidade possui valores que justifiquem sua geoconservação.…”

“…Despite certain differences in its definition (Serrano and Ruiz-Flañ o, 2009;Gray, 2008Gray, , 2013Panizza, 2009;Panizza and Piacente, 2009;Ruban, 2010Ruban, , 2011Knight, 2011;Pereira et al, 2013;Bradbury, 2014;Crofts, 2014), the term can be used to reflect the diversity of geological features that exist on the Earth, in a given territory, etc. The five examples above demonstrate the cooccurrence of essentially different geological features in archaeological sites (Fig.…”
