The volume introduces a diverse range of themes and practices relating to sustainable heritage management. Each paper delves into the challenges, successes, and failures of preserving precious cultural heritage. It discusses various strategies, such as the early inclusion of archaeology in UNESCO frameworks to leveraging archaeological findings and indigenous knowledge for sustainable development goals. The chapters explore the evolution of autoarchaeology as a tool for empowering Indigenous communities to assert their human rights and integrating oral histories and local ecological knowledge to interpret ancient remains. Additionally, it highlights the value of archaeologists working more closely with Indigenous peoples, local communities, and other disciplines in identifying, preserving, conserving and managing heritage sites. It appeals to archaeologists, anthropologists, cultural geographers, cultural heritage professionals and others seeking new ways to protect cultural heritage.

Informazioni sull’autore
Alok Kumar Kanungo, associate research professor at IIT Gandhinagar and adjunct associate professor at Flinders University, was born in Odisha and grew up in close contact with many indigenous communities of eastern and northeastern India. For the past two and half decades, Kanungo has researched field archaeology, ancient technologies, archaeometry, ethnoarchaeology, and indigenous archaeology, resulting in 16 books and more than 80 research articles and book chapters. He has been a Fulbright, Humboldt, British Academy, Rakow, ICG, Homi Bhabha, SPARC, ICHR, and Bead Society fellow and collaborated on an NSF-funded project. Kanungo has travelled and documented the rich heritage of the Nagas of Northeast India, and the Bondos and Juangs of Odisha, both in the field and in museums across Europe and the United Kingdom. Placing the Intellectual rights of indigenous people and/or crafts persons at the forefront of his research, he has worked in many domains of repatriation, and the overlapping spheres of anthropology, history, and archaeology. He has lectured in many universities and research institutes in South Asia, Southeast Asia, Europe and the USA.
Claire Smith has a robust record of leadership in research, teaching and administration. Her academic life is driven by three passions: The first is to convey the sophistication of Indigenous cultures and the unique accomplishments of Indigenous Australians. The second is to contribute to global equity and to intellectually enrich archaeology by eroding the many barriers faced by scholars in low-income countries, especially those who do not normally publish in English. The third is to nurture the next generation of scholars who make a difference. Since 1990, she has conducted successful long-term research with Aboriginal communities in remote areas of Australia. Her leadership within a global context has been enacted as the twice (for 10 years)-elected President of the World Archaeological Congress and as Editor of the Encyclopedia of Global Archaeology (2nd most highly cited and 3rd most downloaded work in Springer’s Humanities, Social Sciences and Law Collections for 2014). She is the author/editor of 16 books and more than 220 publications in English, Spanish, Catalan, Arabic, Russian, Portuguese and Japanese. In 2018, the Royal Anthropological Institute awarded Claire Smith the Lucy Mair Medal and Marsh Award for sustained research with Australian Aboriginal communities that has contributed to human dignity.
Nishaant Choksi received his PhD in anthropology from the University of Michigan, followed by a postdoctoral fellowship at Kyoto University in Japan. Currently, he is an assistant professor of social sciences at the Indian Institute of Technology, Gandhinagar, in Gujarat, India. His research areas include the study of script and writing systems, language and performance, the aesthetic component of language, cultural politics of heritage, and issues of self-governance and livelihood. Choksi examines these themes mainly in the Adivasi communities of India, with whom he has been conducting ethnographic research for almost two decades. His ongoing field projects include work with Bhili speakers in eastern Gujarat, Mundari speakers in Jharkhand, Santali speakers in West Bengal, and collaborative projects with communities in Northeastern India.

(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
