“Damage to the Soul: Syria’s Cultural Heritage in Conflict”. We publish the first Report about what is happening in the cultural-archaeological field of the country – one of the richest heritages of the Orient. The Report is written by Dr. EMMA CUNLIFF of the University of Durham, for the GLOBAL HERITAGE FUND (May 2012).
