TITUTE OF ARCHAEOLOGY AND HERITAGE
The Institute of Archaeology and Heritage resides at the Faculty of Humanities
Studies of the University of Primorska since January 2016, the research group ex-
ists since much longer. The associates of the Institute of Archaeology and Heritage
shaped their research journey at the University of Primorska from 2003 on, work-
ing for the Institute of Heritage of the Mediterranean Scientific Research Centre.
With their departure from the operating environment of the University of Primor-
ska, the IAH research team moved their projects and research work under the aus-
pices of the Faculty of Humanities Studies.
The IAH has only been working at the UP FH for a good four years but the results of
the Institute associates’ research work, as well as their success in applying research
projects at national and international levels, have significantly enriched the Faculty‘s
research platform. The Institute operates a research group that combines and con-
nects research approaches of different scientific fields, interdisciplinary and interdis-
ciplinary. It primarily explores the field of archaeology, from prehistory to the new
age, and connects approaches of various humanities fields dealing with the heritage
of the past and the present. Researchers combine the findings of archaeology, an-
thropology, history of art, architecture, as well as specific disciplines such as muse-
ology, conservation, archival science and tourism. The IAH currently employs eight
researchers/educators, one researcher and three project coordinators who offer
technical and professional support.
The IAH research group has acquired and implemented two national and four bilat-
eral projects financed by the ARRS, as well as three international projects provid-
ed by the EASME/EMFF/2015, Erasmus+, KA203 and the EEA Financial Mechanism
Program 2009-2014. The IAH Research Group also actively implements projects
in the field of preventive archaeology, with which we successfully compete on the
market. In total, we have implemented 10 campaigns of this kind in recent years. We
are also intensely engaged in post-excavation processing of sites archives, which to-
gether with our scientific publications, contributes to the knowledge about various
archaeological periods of the Slovene area.
