Sammendrag
The main and general point in this presentation is that archaeological heritage and artifacts are in their ecological effects and physicality inherently environmental. Thus, the connection between archaeology and the Environment is not really a choice, but something inherent in dealing with a material world. This connects to the theme given to my presentation, namely anthropogenic ARTIFACTS, and their relationship to and not least component of environments. This might seem like a self-evident and non-controversial statement, but, as I will discuss later, this becomes very visible and not least pertinent when looking at material heritage from the recent- and contemporary past. To discuss these points, I will focus on heritage management and proposed legislation in Norway that explicitly attempts to connect cultural heritage with environmentalist agendas such as sustainability and diversity. This will later in the presentation be illustrated with a case-study from Northern-Norway, namely the remains of a world-war-two German Luftwaffe storage camp located in a landscape protection area in Pasvik.
