For the site was surrounded by lush vegetation and in the middle of an intense process of regeneration, involving everything from small creatures in the soil to huge trees reaching into the sky.\n\nIn this talk, I will trace the emerg ence of this insight and its implications for rethinking archaeology´s te mporality and, in particular, the 1964 Venice Charter on Conservation a nd Restoration which has been the most influential 20th century document on policy guiding heritage conservation and restoration. I will also disc uss implications for the response of archaeology to climate change, goin g beyond understanding long-term environmental change and safeguarding th reatened sites toward developing strategies for increasing cultural resil ience and sustainability. Archaeologists have long claimed to be working on the past for the benefit of future generations—now it is time to expli citly address the future and draw on the full potential of archaeology to make human societies more sustainable (while perhaps improving the life of non-human lifeforms too).\n\n*RSVP here [2]*\n\n6pm Lecture 7pm Recepti on \n\nParking Information [3]\n\nCornelius Holtorf is Professor of Archae ology as well as Chairholder of the UNESCO Chair on Heritage Futures at L innaeus University, Kalmar, Sweden.
