| Outline of Research at the Start |
This research aims to contribute on the fields of Heritage Studies and Public Archaeology by studying the social process where archaeological remains become Archaeological Heritage in developing countries and analyzing how this value is contested or supported by different social actors.
|
| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed to study the social process where archaeological remains become Archaeological Heritage by analyzing the history and current situation of archaeological remains at La Molina district (Lima, Peru).
Through document analysis, interviews, and participant observation, it was possible to reconstruct the history of the archaeological site Huaca Melgarejo (100-800 A.D.) to present time. This information was later shared to related stakeholders (local authorities, local schoolteachers, and local residents), observing how later it was received, interpreted, and used by them. As a result, it was noticed that a need for more accessible information to the general public was needed, but also that this information was later reinterpreted by these stakeholders according to their perspective of use of the site (tourism asset, education tool, local symbol). However, this diversity of stakeholders and perspectives has resulted in the lack of accountability for managing the site.

| Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
This research contributes to Heritage Studies and Public Archaeology by studying how ancient landscapes have been integrated into modern cities, identifying the problems for preserving ancient remains, and the negotiations needed to better use them with a diversity of interested stakeholders.
