1
00:00:46,580 --> 00:00:49,460
Cultural heritage does not respect borders.

2
00:00:49,580 --> 00:00:55,660
A good example of this is the Roman cities of Ammaia in Marvao, Contributa Lulia in Medina de las Torres

3
00:00:55,660 --> 00:00:59,700
and the archaeological remains of Merida and the area of La Serena in Extremadura.

4
00:00:59,860 --> 00:01:04,180
Historical monuments now the focus of cross-border research.

5
00:01:04,300 --> 00:01:07,100
The research consists

6
00:01:07,260 --> 00:01:12,780
 of the use of a series of techniques which have as common denominator their non-invasive character,

7
00:01:12,820 --> 00:01:16,420
in other words, they allow us to obtain a lot of information about archaeological sites

8
00:01:16,740 --> 00:01:21,540
 without needing to dig them up completely.

9
00:01:26,060 --> 00:01:32,100
The techniques which have been used and which are being used in this project could be divided into two big groups.

10
00:01:32,100 --> 00:01:42,740
First, techniques aimed at analyzing images both from satellites and our own aerial photography devices

11
00:01:42,940 --> 00:01:46,580
 and also, on the other hand, different prospection techniques,

12
00:01:46,620 --> 00:01:51,300
both of the subsoil using geophysical methods and surface prospecting.

13
00:01:51,700 --> 00:01:56,660
We have the heritage, the technology and the procedures developed by this project.

14
00:01:56,820 --> 00:01:58,900
Why should we connect them?

15
00:01:58,980 --> 00:02:05,580
To explain it in simple terms, what we want is that archaeological zones like those

16
00:02:05,740 --> 00:02:11,420
we are studying stop being unfriendly places for visitors,

17
00:02:11,620 --> 00:02:16,900
and that visitors find themselves with materials which help them to understand these remains,

18
00:02:17,500 --> 00:02:23,100
to enjoy them, and so to increase the cultural attraction of these places

19
00:02:23,380 --> 00:02:27,060
 using the capital of our historical and archaeological heritage.

20
00:02:27,260 --> 00:02:33,940
This means greater enjoyment of our historical legacy on the Spain-Portugal border.
