> Archaeological Camp of Interethnic Youth - Ulpiana
With the initiative of the archaeology sector at the Museum of Kosova and the support of the OSCE (Prishtina), the Archaeological Camp of Interethnic Youth began its work in 2004. This is the first camp of its kind to be organized in Kosova – one that introduces archaeology to high-schools students from various ethnic backgrounds and from all over Kosova. During the first part of the camp participants attended lectures presented in multi-media form, explaining definitions and aims of archaeology as a science. In addition the lectures treated the relevance of Kosova’s archaeological heritage of all periods, beginning from the Neolithic up to the Middle Ages. The participants visited numerous heritage sites, including the ancient city of Ulpiana, the Novobrdo Fortress (Artana), the Deçan Monastery, as well as various monuments in the old town of Prizren. During 2005 rthe center of the camp activities was the ancient city of Ulpiana, where archaeological excavations and conservation efforts have not been conducted for the past couple of decades. For this reason, camp activities focused on the cleaning of surfaces. Following the end of camp activities, the participants of the camp visited the Archaeological and Byzantine Museum in Thessaloniki, Greece, as well various archaeological site of the region. On their way to Kosova, participants also visited sites in Macedonia. The entire trip was recorded and a publicly shown documentary film was produced. In 2006-2008 the camp participants were directly involved in the archaeological excavation! s of Ulpiana. This year’s activities will enable youth from various backgrounds to become better acquainted with each other, but also make an important impact on public opinion and enable the better presentation of Kosova’s cultural-historic heritage to its visitors, local and foreign.
