- Abstract
This paper outlines the management strategy implemented by the cultural association Past in Progress over the archaeological area of Poggio del Molino near Populonia (Piombino, LI). Since 2008, Past in Progress's model has achieved particular success at the international level, with more than 2,000 participants having taken an "active" share in archaeological experiences in the territory of Populonia. More recently at Poggio del Molino, developments have been initiated to transform the area into a "Shared Archaeology Park" (Parco di Archeologia Condivisa/PArCo), the first in Italy. Characterized by a diverse set of didactic, content-based, and experiential amenities, the PArCo will serve to structure authentic and "once-in-a-lifetime" experiences, responding to the needs of tourists, volunteers, and nonlocal visitors. In a world in which travelers function as "temporary citizens", generating a form of tourism which is both conscious and capable of creating real value is the real "next frontier" of public archaeology.
