burial conservation

Burial conservation involves preserving and stabilizing archaeological finds and historical artifacts discovered within graves, tombs, or burial sites. This process aims to prevent deterioration caused by environmental factors such as moisture, soil acidity, and microbial activity. Conservators carefully analyze the materials—such as bones, textiles, or metals—and then apply specialized techniques and treatments to stabilize and conserve these objects. The goal is to protect cultural heritage while allowing for study, interpretation, and display, ensuring future generations can learn from and appreciate these historical remains.
