It was an excellent opportunity to acquaint Ecomuseums and Community in more detail many colleagues worldwide Museums with the activities of Serbian museums.

Ecomuseums are a Ethnology Fest synonym of power of a community and through the implementation of feasible de- velopment of cultural tourism they are an essential element for the improvement of well-being and development of the entire community. At the same time, the ICOM Serbia National Committee – as a professional association – will carry on its activities 30 that will contribute to the completion of already started and the initiation of new Museology projects of ecomuseums. Colonial Williamsburg Reflecting the need for a planned approach to culture, this year has also been marked by a series of public debates on the Proposal of the cultural development strategy of Serbia from 2017 to 2027. The particularly important segments of this proposal include the adoption of several laws and bylaws, as well as the protection of cultural heritage as a key value of the society. Additionally, stress was laid on the need for development of contemporary creative works through the increase of funds for the mobility of artists, among other means. Of special note are the plans for capital investment and opening of new museums, along with the completion of two vital reconstruction projects – the National Museum and the Museum of Contemporary Art in Belgrade. Regardless of the praises and criticisms addressed to the Proposal, it should be taken as the start of a constructive dialogue which will finally lead to the adoption of this document of major strategic importance.

They were wheel-thrown, mould-made or manufactured by using a combination of wheel-throwing and mould-made appliqués. Given that face vessels are considerably scarcer than other kinds of pottery, more than fifty finds from Moesia Superior make an enviable collection. In this and other provinces face vessels have been recovered from military camps, civilian settlements and necropolises, which suggests that they served more than one purpose. It is generally accepted that the faces-masks gave a protective role to the vessels, be it to protect the deceased or the family, their house and possessions. More than forty of all known finds from Moesia Superior come from Viminacium, a half of that number from necropolises. Although tangible evidence is lacking, there must have been several local workshops producing face vessels. The number and technological characteristics of the discovered vessels suggest that one of the workshops is likely to have been at Viminacium, an important pottery-making centre in the second and third centuries. Key words: The prosopomorphic vessels, Viminacium, Moesia Superior, 2nd /3rd century AD. he main characteristic of prosopomor- functioned as burial urns.4 These curious vessels show phic vessels is that they display a human various shapes, manufacturing techniques and sizes, Tface or basic facial features: the eyes, but are considerably less frequent than most Roman eyebrows, nose and mouth, quite often also a beard, forms.

The Project ARCHEST was designed to improve the presentation of the site and to, consequently, attract new visitors. The main objectives were support- ing the archaeology-related creative sectors to operate transnationally and to increase the knowledge of common Roman history through the most important archaeological sites. Additionally, there was an objective to increase the audience with an integrated approach and modern technology, transforming a non-audience into a new audience and changing the opinion that archaeology is something boring or too elitist. The results of the project have a huge appeal to ordinary audiences and support a better understanding and acceptance of Roman civilization through clear images which, at the same time, do not contradict the scientific concept but, rather, aim to support it. keyWords: 3d reConstruCtIon, VIRTUAL reaLIty, VIMInaCIuM, arCHest.
