These proceedings should do much to promote and strengthen the relationship between the disciplines of conservation and archaeology.
Among the topics discussed are: Innovative Approaches to Policy and Management of Archaeological Sites Finding Common Ground: The Role of Stakeholders in Decision Making Archaeology and Tourism: A Viable Partnership?

This volume presents the proceedings of the Conservation Theme at the Congress, held in Washington, D.C., June 22–26, 2003.
In recognition of this, the World Archaeological Congress, with the Getty Conservation Institute and a consortium of other conservation organizations, brought together scholars working throughout the globe to discuss vital issues that affect archaeological heritage today.
