- Abstract
This paper presents an example of good practice in the case of (re)presenting and the popularisation of heritage in cooperation with the local community. In addition to this kind of cooperation, the Roman Games in Ptuj is an event of an international character, reuniting the Western Balkan countries, which additionally helps the presentation of heritage and knowledge exchange and experience based learning. Via various activities and workshops, archaeological knowledge and finds related to the Roman period were used as the basis for creating a story about the past. In such a case, storytelling was based upon scientific data, but one of the important topics in student workshops was the stereotypes set by popular culture about archaeology and archaeologists. Based on the conducted activities and workshops, and primarily on the experience from the Roman Games, the paper will discuss how the concept of public archaeology has changed over time and how effective it is to have both professional and local communities involved in order to create a better storytelling narrative about the past that is later shared with the general public.
