First and last Circular and call for papers On behalf of the Organizing Committee, we are pleased to invite you to attend the Workshop on the Conservation of the Subterranean Cultural Heritage, to be held in Seville, Spain. The workshop is organized by the Spanish Network of Science and Technology for the Conservation of Cultural Heritage (TechnoHeritage). The objective of the workshop is to promote an interdisciplinary forum for discussion on all aspects on the conservation of the subterranean cultural heritage, providing at the same time an up-to-date and comprehensive picture of the state-of-the-art of most recent investigations. The ultimate aims is to strengthen the foundation of scientific and technological research, overcoming the barriers of exchanging information that not always is published in scientific journals. The participation of researchers and professionals from the archeology-historyconservation-maintenance-restoration areas and the architectural-sciencesengineering areas will stimulate cooperation and integration between otherwise heterogeneous fields.
