| Summary: |
Research Center for Preservation of Historical Heritage, established
in 2005 in Yildiz Technical University, organizes an International
Symposium on “Studies on Historical Heritage” in Antalya.
The symposium will be as a continuation of the previous international
symposia entitled “Studies in Ancient Structures” held
in Istanbul in 1997 and 2001.
Antalya, known as Pamphilia in history, was inhabited 50 thousand
years ago and housed Hittites, Phyrgians, Lydians, Greeks, Romans,
Seljukians and Ottomans. From 2nd century B.C. on the name of the
place has been known successively
as Attaleis, Adalia, Adalya and finally Antalya. Housing many historical
remains from these periods, Antalya is one of the most suitable
places to communicate the rapid advances made in theoretical and
applied aspects of studies in preservation of historical heritage.
This symposium is aimed to provide an international and multi-disciplinary
meeting for researchers and practitioners to present and discuss
past, present and future of historical art and architectural heritage
and their environments. It will bring together historians, art historians,
archaeologists, architects, engineers, scientists, building surveyors,
urban planners, and other specialists to exchange their analytical,
experimental, historical and constructional experiences and studies
in preservation of historical heritage.
