Muzea archologiczne a działalność konserwatorska
The author reviews the situation that arose in Poland in 1975
in the field o f the protection o f cultural values after a change
in the administrative structure. He points out that an increase
in the number o f conservators and opening o f new district museums
are favourable phenomena, thanks to which there will be a more
even distribution o f professional archaeologists throughout Poland.
For voivodship conservators o f historic monuments the museums
are an essential base of personnel, storehouse and conservators’
reserves. Here, a close cooperation is a guarantee o f successes
in the protection o f archaeological cultural values.
Archaeological as well as national and district museums with
proper archaeological sections should, in the author’s opinion,
have statutory rights to carry out excavation studies on the whole
territory o f Poland and abroad.
Museums play an ever growing role in educating archaeological
specialists including those engaged in conservation works. An
alarming symptom noticed in recent years is the outflow o f conservation
experts from museums. The author finds a rise in their
earnings to be an extremely urgent question.
