WHAT IS CULTURAL HERITAGE? And how can we preserve our world heritage through Science?

Hi professor! Janine here from NYUAD Candidate Weekend 2018, and officially enrolled in your class in Spring 2019 :)) Just wanted to say I'm so happy and proud to see you posting this video and even starting your own YT channel! I found your class (and work!) immensely fascinating and I am beyond excited that other people get to "take" it too. Hope other professors also get inspired by your dedication <3

Sara loves your content

Hinding-hindi ako magtitiwala o magpapadala ng pera dahil sa pagmamahal sa mga nagsisinungaling sa iyo, sa ibang bansa.

Wow, this was great, I learned a lot, thank you.

Hello professor! I'm Mert from CH Spring 2021. Thank you for the informative content! My academic focus and personal interest have always been more on preserving intangible heritage, but I am very much excited to learn about heritage and preservation from a scientific point of view. My favorite cultural heritage sites would be the Residences of the Royal House of Savoy in Turin, Italy. It is a wonderful example of Baroque and Late Baroque art and architecture. I visited the Royal House during my J-term trip to Turin last year. The site is of special significance to me because it was after visiting the Royal House that I decided to minor in Art History and learn more about preservation. It was a shame that parts of the Royal House were damaged by the fire in 2008, but thanks to the reconstruction I witnessed during the visit, I started thinking about the importance of preserving tangible cultural heritage.

Great video! ❤

My favorite is the connecting caves of Sagada in Philippines. To explore this cave, one must be prepared for 4-hour Spelunking. But it's worth it, you'll find world's best natural formations underground.

My professor recommended this icredible video.
thank you

the mic kind of sounds off just saying

Hi, this is very interesting. This will help us in my blog which promotes our cultural heritage in our country. Thank you so much

Normal people blink.

Hi professor.. In the context of uncertainties and dystopias, what is the role of cultural heritage? Answer please

Hi I am student of intellectual property law and this channel helped me learn about cultural heritage

Hello Professor! I'm Yuree from CH Spring 2021. First of all, thank you for the wonderful video! I would say that my favorite cultural heritage site is Hagia Sophia in Istanbul, Turkey, which I first learned about while studying Art History a couple years back. I was captivated by the beautifully ornamented interior, with multiple windows on the central dome that floods the building with light, and the gold mosaics that allow for an ethereal feeling. It was also fascinating how it was constructed originally as a church but later was modified into a mosque, with minarets added on the four corners of the structure, and Arabic calligraphy on the inside. I'd love to visit the site in person and see for myself what it's like to be in such a heavenly place!

Hello Professor! I am ChaeMin from CH Spring 2021. I would say that my favorite heritage site, as well as it being a heritage site that I would like to visit once all these COVID-19 situation ends, is the Acropolis of Athens, Greece. Always reading about the Greek Mythology comic book when I was little, I have always wanted to visit Greece when I would grow up. Having this interest, I came to interact with global UNESCO heritage sites during one of my research projects at high school. Knowing that the UNESCO's logo was based off of the Acropolis of Athens, my interest narrowed down to the Acropolis.

Hi Professor! I'm Fatema from CH Spring 2021. I really enjoyed watching the video and it was really informative in explaining the different 'categories' of heritage. I would say that my favorite cultural heritage site is the treasuries / treasure temple in Delphi, Greece. I visited Delphi during a J-Term trip last year and found the treasuries particularly interesting because of their financial and political importance. The temples are considered the treasure of the athenians, as they represent a history of warfare between the people of the same nation. It was fascinating to see how they were preserved in a way that ensured minimal reconstruction to their strong foundation.

Hi Professor! I enjoyed watching your video! This is Denat from CH Spring 202. I would say one of the attractions I would love to explore is the Acropolis of Athens. I am interested in the Western civilization and Ancient Greece architecture fascinates me. The Acropolis of Athens contains several remains of ancient buildings and thus a great place to explore ancient architecture. Although I haven't been to Europe, Acropolis of Athens is one of the heritages that I would really love to explore in the future.

Hi professor, this is such a great video! I would say that my favorite cultural heritage is Sarmizegetusa Regia, the capital of the former Dacian state before the Roman-Dacian wars. Apart from being a citadel, Sarmizegetusa Regia also included a sacred zone, with rectangular blocks arranged in a large circle. Some people say that the large circular sanctuary looks similar to the stone monument at Stonehenge in England. The remains of the citadel are located in Hunedoara, a county in western Romania. I had the chance to visit the place many times with my parents when I was younger and I can tell that it definitely looks amazing every season!

My favorite Cultural Heritage Site is the Badshahi Mosque in the Walled City of Lahore, Pakistan. It was constructed by the Mughal Emperor Jahanzeb in 1671 and took almost 2 years to complete. It is the largest mosque built during the Mughal-era and the 2nd largest in Pakistan even to this day. Looking at the mosque, this mosque is a perfect example of Mughal architecture and each corner of the mosque has a history of its own.

My favorite cultural heritage site has to be Xelhá in Quintana Roo, México. This used to be one of the biggest commercial ports of the Mayan empire. The name Xel-Há translates to "where the water is born". I visited here with my family a couple of years ago and absolutely fell in love with everything about this place. The ruins are beautiful in their own right but coupled with the panoramic views of the sea and the natural wells (cenotes) it results in a sight which I wish I could experience for the first time again. The ruins are not as well maintained as one would hope but that is no surprise after the destruction of the Aztec and Mayan sites at the hands of the Spanish and nowadays disrespectful tourists. However Xelhá remains my absolute favorite cultural heritage site.
