Abstract
Heritage Science is a growing interdisciplinary field that illustrates the benefits of STEAM in action. It attempts to join specific competences in material science with the interpretative skills of the humanities and social sciences in order to understand and assist with the conservation of artefacts and sites that different cultures and societies value, while also assisting with the curation of tangible artistic and archaeological capital of interest from economic and development perspectives. This chapter presents a report of a 2-day symposium that took stock of the interdisciplinary field, presented existing projects and introduced new avenues for future research.
