ABSTRACT In times of globalization, financial crisis, growing population and climatic changes preservation of cultural sites
became a great challenge to modern societies. Especially in strongly industrialized and urbanized areas like the
Gaziantep region the preservation of cultural heritage must come to terms with economic and societal interests. So,
monument-preservation means also providing public access to sites, making sites beneficial for local people and
integrating care and protection measures in public services. A German research group of archaeologists and
conservators formed by the Forschungsstelle Asia Minor from Münster University and Fraunhofer-Institute for
Building Physics are currently designing a long-term research project for holistic and sustainable preservation and
care concepts for archaeological sites in the area of Gaziantep. The archaeologists of the Asia Minor research group
look back on a long research cooperation of 15 years in Gaziantep, always friendly supported by the municipality and
the Archaeological Museum of Gaziantep. They are positive about deepening their cooperation with their Turkish
colleagues with new objectives and new approaches.
INTRODUCTION Since 1997 an interdisciplinary team of scientists, led by the Forschungsstelle Asia Minor from
Münster University, is examining the cultural development of the ancient Commagene region in
South-Eastern Anatolia (Turkey). The focus of interest is the Gaziantep area. In the scope of
these researches some significant sites were discovered, e.g. the caves of two underground
sanctuaries of the Roman mystery god Mithras (Mithraea) near the village Dülük (Fig. 1) and
the Iuppiter Dolichenus sanctuary on the top of mount Dülük Baba Tepesi. (Fig. 2) [1]

Gaziantep is a fast increasing metropolis with strongly rising population, growing textile
industry and agriculture. The recent boom years led to changes of social and urban structure.
Positive impacts are the growing public interest in cultural heritage, advancing mobility by
renewing public transportation and improvements of infrastructure. The historic old town with
the monumental castle (Kale) overtopping the surrounding roofs has been refurbished in the last
years. More and more domestic and foreign tourist groups, but also individuals, are visiting
Gaziantep for its cultural sites.
In the scope of this strong urbanization process the landscape around Gaziantep is changing fast.
Archaeological areas must be protected in the same way as the natural environment which will
be an important factor of maintaining a high quality of life for the urban population. So the
strategy for protecting archaeological sites must regard these social and economic circumstances
making people aware of the values of archaeological heritage by making those sites enjoyable as
recreation areas and family entertainment.

THE SANCTUARIES OF IUPPITER DOLICHENUS AND MITHRAS The sanctuaries of Iuppiter Dolichenus and Mithras form an outstanding ensemble of ritual
places in ancient Commagene. The discovery of two subterranean shrines for the mystery cult of
Mithras in 1997 has greatly improved our knowledge of the cultural and religious history of this
region; indeed, the Mithraea of Doliche are the largest currently known in the Mediterranean.
The origin of the god Mithras is allocated in Persia, where he was venerated as god of the sun
and the light, and of oaths and truth. However, the development of the Roman Mithras cult is a
subject of many disputes among historians and archaeologists. The excavations of the Mithraea
provided important results concerning their date. So far it seems that the cave where the
Mithraea are located was used from 1st centrury BC until 3
rd century AD.

The Iuppiter Dolichenus sanctuary is evidently one of the few places of worship in South-East
Anatolia in which religious practices can be retraced continuously from the 1st millennium BC
to the Middle Ages. The on-going excavations of the sanctuary are helping us to understand the
central position of this cult place within the context of South-East Anatolia and North Syria, not
least the rest of Roman world. [2]
The Iuppiter Dolichenus cult spread from Commagene across the Roman world in the 2nd
century AD. The god became one of the most important deities in the Roman Empire. Various
worship places and finds all over Europe testify to the vast diffusion of his cult. Still, the early
development of Iuppiter Dolichenus, his roots and the reasons for his later success are contested
and require further researches. Finding answers to these questions will contribute to the
controversial discussion about the character and rites of the Iupiter Dolichenus cult. [3]
ACTUAL ACTIVITIES AND OBJECTIVES FOR SITE-PRESERVATION In the last years a team of local professionals started to prepare the Mithraea for public access.
The caves are now walkable by illuminated stairs; the area around the Mithraea is designed as
an archaeological park with green walkways, parking area, a small café and sanitary facilities.
The small village Dülük is now connected to Gaziantep by public transport and is expecting
visitors from the region as well as from foreign countries. A didactic concept for the
presentation of the caves and their connection to Dülük Baba Tepesi has already been designed;
however, the final realization has come to rest. Meanwhile, physical impacts by climate and
weathering are causing first degradations of the monument and the installations. Thus, the main
focus of the next years will be the conservational monitoring and the development of
maintenance and care concepts.
The actual excavation of the Iuppiter Dolichenus sanctuary is located inside the Dülük Mensir
Alani, a natural preserve which is a popular recreation area for the local population of
Gaziantep. Especially in recent years the excavation activities and the uncovered archaeological
structures attracted an increasing number of local and foreign visitors. Thus the head of
excavation is now interested in officially opening the site for public access. The challenge of
making running excavation sites walkable is the security of visitors and at the same time to keep
walkways flexible within the yearly changing excavation trenches. Another interest is the
development of a protection strategy against physical and chemical degradation caused by direct
weathering and mechanical impacts. Provisional protection measures should however not
disturb on-going excavation works or affect further conservation treatments for long-term
preservation.
The actual project preparation focuses on the complete and integral documentation of the
Dolichenus sanctuary, a damage mapping and risk assessment, and a strategic planning for first-
aid measures and maintenance programs and the establishment of an interdisciplinary team by
members of all participating institutions. Preservational problems of uncovered archaeological
sites are obvious at many parts of the site. Effective and durable measures are not only matters
of modern technology but rather of good organization, cooperation and team work and as well
of feasible concepts respecting local social and cultural circumstances. Conservational
monitoring, care measures and treatments comprehend outdoor climate and pollutant monitoring
as well as the simple weeding of plants growing out of the architectural remains and the
disposal of debris and leaves.
After a first overview of the actual site condition a provisional physical protection of urgent
cases like collapsing walls will be constructed. All covering and backing measures should be
minimally invasive and reversible. Generally a low-tech preventive conservation strategy may
be the most feasible and reliable protection method. As preventive conservation implies holistic
approaches without direct intervention into original substance this concept will maintain all
possibilities open for future conservation treatments.

COOPERATING INSTITUTIONS AND THEIR CONSERVATION
PRINCIPLES A team of archaeologist and conservators from the Forschungsstelle Asia Minor and
Fraunhofer-Institute for Building Physics are now forming a cooperation programme for the
development of sustainable heritage care concepts for archaeological sites and public access.
Different projects are planned in Turkey and Azerbaijan.
Long-term strategies and the development of sustainable concepts are actual questions Germany
and other European countries are dealing with. Climatic changes, growing population, financial
crisis and the progress of multimedia communication are factors which have global impacts.
Thus new effective methods for the monuments preservation must consider those complex
social and economic interrelationships to achieve sustainability, long duration and effectiveness.
In the scope of these ecological, social and economic settings FALKE (Research Alliance
for Cultural Heritage) [4] was founded in cooperation between the Fraunhofer-Society
(Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft), Leibniz Association (Leibniz-Gemeinschaft) and the Prussian
Cultural Heritage Foundation (Stiftung Preußischer Kulturbesitz). By bundling competences of
humanities, natural sciences and cultural studies the three partners aim to develop, to implement
and to prove new processes and methods for the preservation and restoration of cultural
properties. Further key aspects are to intensify knowledge transfer between conservation
research and practice and to promote and establish the value of cultural heritage in public
awareness. The Fraunhofer-Institute of Building Physics (Fraunhofer-IBP), and especially the
working group for the preservation of historic monuments and preventive conservation, is
directly involved in promoting FALKE. In cooperation with different archaeological research
institutes Fraunhofer-IBP tries to enhance conservation sciences for archaeological sites.
Today modern technologies for communication and presentation allow worldwide
intercultural exchange of information and experience but the key to successful cooperation and
networking is still freedom, confidence and openness for innovative ideas. The Forschungsstelle
Asia Minor looks back to over 15 years of good cooperation with the municipal institution for
culture and tourism and the museum in Gaziantep. All participating members agree to future
cooperation to preserve and prepare archaeological sites for present people and future
generations. It is obvious that sustainability and long duration of conservation is not only a
matter of modern conservation technologies and communication media. Social aspects like
public awareness, valuation and appreciation, regional town planning and environmental
protection are as well important as economical subjects. So the team’s objective is to create
cooperative networks and preventive conservation concepts to provide a holistic approach to
cultural heritage care.
Significant methodological progresses are made in the last years in implementing holistic and
interdisciplinary approaches to long-term preservation of archaeological sites with special focus
on management aspects. Still there are more experiences to be gained in daily work and
discussed on an international and interdisciplinary level involving more socio-cultural and
socio-economic subjects besides technology and knowledge transfer in conservation sciences. A
successful realization of care and presentation concepts will increase public awareness and
interest for to date 13 sites associated with the Mithraea and the Dülük Baba Tepesi. Heritage
care must be part of societal interest of local people and undertaken for their own benefit to
reach sustainability.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The research team of the Forschungsstelle Asia Minor highly appreciates the many years of
trustful cooperation with the municipality and the Archaeological Museum of Gaziantep. On
behalf of our international project members we would like to thank our Turkish colleagues who
are accompanying our excavations and helping with words and deeds over many years. We are
very looking forward to further years of successful collaboration.
