Round table discussion

follow generally-accepted guidelines, principles, techniques and methods of conservation, restoration and revitalization; - Adequate measures must be used by the investor in order to prevent degradation and devastation of the archaeological site (removing artefacts without authorization, devastation, impact of weathering factors, frost, ice, inadequate interventions...) - The investor should, as soon as possible, provide preventive protection of the Firuz-bey’s hammam archaeological site, the protection which will ensure the adequate microclimate, and, enable possible additional archaeological researches, under the supervision of the authorized archaeologist. On the basis of detailed analyses relating to the level of preservation of all the parts of the archaeological site, and in compliance with generally-accepted protection principles, and in the presence of an archaeologist, it is necessary to draw up a “Conservation project of the Firuz-bey’s hammam archaeological site” as soon as possible. - On accepting the “Conservation project of the Firuz-bey’s hammam archaeological site”, one should start implementing it. - One should take urgent measures to invite tenders for the “Revitalization of the Firuz-bey’s hammam archaeological site in Sarajevo” in cooperation with expert institutions (the Institute for protection and the Association of architects in Bosnia and Herzegovina). The material for this tender, open to participants’ suggestions, should contain general conditions, a history of the monument-site, conservation conditions and fundamental principles of integration of old and new structures (with remark that the reconstruction of the monument that is long gone, is out of the question).
