CLASH of CULTURES
International project - promotion of archaeological heritage
University of Primorska, Science and Research Center, Institute for Mediterranean Heritage from Slovenia coordinated the international project entitled Clash of Cultures. It is one out of two projects focusing on promotion of archaeological heritage which were in 2012 financially supported by the European Commission in Culture (2007-2013) programme. Beside University of Primorska, in the project collaborated also Lošinjski muzej from Croatia, kelten römer museum manching from Germany, Zemaljski muzej Bosne i Hercegovine from Bosnia and Herzegovina and Arheološki muzej Makedonije from Macedonia.
Clash of Cultures is a promotional project in which the attempt was made to demonstrate cultural contact across the European continent during the last centuries BC. These were junctures, exceptional connections of prehistoric societies from the Celtic cultural circle and the Mediterranean civilizations of Macedonia, Greece and Italy. Archaeological sites, this is the presented cities, demonstrate how Europe of the 1st millennium BC was intertwined with cultural networks – connections of extremely distant territories. Five sites selected for this occasion are less known but specific places where these connections and contacts took place. Manching, Ptuj, Osor, Ošanići and Ohrid are not just exceptionally important archaeological sites supporting these contacts, but also metaphors for presentation of cultural history of this part of Europe.
It is considered that with promoting of such different cultural traditions in specific social circumstances observed in a long period we renew the comprehension of our common cultural history. Consequently the Project is conducted on several levels putting forward firstly the regional and international promotion. In the spirit of preservation and promotion of our rich, precious and important common cultural heritage, this edition presents the contribution of all partners to the project Clash of Cultures.
