Introduction
Monitoring process at the Mozan site includes two main aspects that are regularly addressed: the inspection of informational panels and the assessment of the overall condition of the archaeological site. This process aims to ensure proper site management, preserve its architectural and informational elements, and enhance the visitor’s experience and understanding of the site’s historical and cultural significance.
The informational panels consist of a set of signs distributed throughout the site, serving as a primary means of introducing visitors to the archaeological features and the most important discoveries discovered since the earliest stages of excavation. These panels also provide simplified scientific information that helps visitors understand the historical sequence of the site and the functions of its architectural structures, in addition to raising awareness of the importance of protecting and preserving cultural heritage. The monitoring process includes checking the condition of these panels, the clarity of the written texts, their suitability to their display locations, and monitoring any damage resulting from natural or human factors.
The overall condition of the site includes the assessment of the archaeological architectural structures, such as the palace, the temple, and the abi. This involves monitoring the structural stability of these buildings, identifying signs of deterioration or damage, and determining their needs for maintenance or preventive protection. The aim is to preserve the integrity of the archaeological structures and ensure their continuity, in accordance with scientific standards and the local environment.
The results of the monitoring process are documented and organized through the UGR, where the work is divided into two main sections: the inspections section and the reports section, as illustrated below.
