Cultural assets represent a unique heritage, the valorization of which relies on archaeometric research and proper diagnostic and conservation actions. This complex background has diverse competences, collaborating and building ties with one another, and the broad concept of sustainability represents one of its pillars becoming increasingly important and worth of promotion. Nowadays, more than ever, archaeometric investigations should be sustainable, in view of their own economic aspects and environmental implications. Even restoration can be conducted by means of green materials and methods. When it comes to the analysis of material culture and its role in understanding intangible cultural
heritage, the interdisciplinary framework of archaeometry allows disclosing the sustainable choices made in ancient productions, which may inspire the sustainable choices of the future. For these reasons, the Conference will discuss the numerous aspects related to the valorization and sustainability of cultural heritage, aiming at defining a more modern approach to the archaeometric research and highlighting its inferences on other fields of basic and applied research.
