Abstract

SHS investigation development is considered from the geographical and historical viewpoint. 3 stages are described. Within Stage 1 the work was carried out in the Department of the Institute of Chemical Physics in Chernogolovka where the scientific discovery had been made. At Stage 2 the interest to SHS arose in different cities and towns of the former USSR. Within Stage 3 SHS entered the international scene. Now SHS processes and products are being studied in more than 50 countries.

Abstract

Cultural heritage has continued to be explored by several organisations in the UK. Understanding heritage is important in learning about current society, and, in several ways, the churchyard is a strong source for learning about cultural history. The changing styles of headstone inscriptions provide information about the socioeconomics of a place; and regional styles provide information on the fashion of the time and the understanding of material culture.

Keywords:

Churchyards, conservation, headstones, inscriptions, kirkyards, material culture.
