- Abstract
- Sri Ksetra, in Myanmar, is an inhabited archaeological area in which rural landscape, widespread built heritage and archaeological evidences are intertwined with presence of numerous villages. In 2014 the three Pyu cities were named as the first UNESCO World Heritage Site in Myanmar: despite the premises, Sri Ksetra, Beikthano and Halin were not listed as ‘cultural landscapes’ sites but recognized as ‘cultural’ sites. Field research in 2015 highlighted emerging issues in the management and safeguarding of inhabited archaeological sites. The investigation raises critical issues concerning the conservation and management of the rural landscape as heritage, in view of a sustainable development of the site in favour of those who live there.
