WHAT IS CULTURAL HERITAGE? And how can we preserve our world heritage through Science?
Cultural heritage is comprised of tangible heritage, which includes natural heritage and intangible heritage. All the cultural heritage is very valuable to our world and society, and that's why it is very important to ensure the preservation of cultural heritage. Organizations such as UNESCO are actively working towards preserving our world's cultural heritage.
Heritage Science is the field that uses Science to help study objects and sites of cultural heritage and preserve our world heritage. Heritage Science can help with dating objects of cultural heritage relevance, with heritage conservation, heritage restoration, and with authenticating art objects.

About me: My name is Maria Baias. I'm a scientist and a Sci-Fi/Fantasy writer. When I was working in academia, in my research, I use different scientific methods to study precious objects of cultural heritage, such as ancient mummies and bones, paintings, and violins. One of my scientific research projects involves developing a scientific method to identify fake paintings. I love our world heritage and I want to share with the world fascinating cultural heritage stories through my videos, my blog, and my novels.
