w of protection. The process of reconstruc-
tion can be an educative process itself and the
finished building can be an important didactic
tool for visitors (Stanley-Price 2009, 36). Still, it
would be preferable to place reconstructions out-
side the site perimeter, in order to prevent their
disturbance and to give visitors the possibility to
admire the original remains and compare them
to the reconstructions.
