In this context, this article aims to investigate the awareness, perceptions, and attitudes of the inhabitants of the city of Annaba in Algeria toward the importance of conserving the Hippone archaeological site.Design/methodology/approachIn this study, a survey was administered to a cohort comprising 220 residents of Annaba city. The acquired dataset underwent rigorous analysis utilizing statistical software (SPSS) version 26. The analytical framework encompassed descriptive statistics, chi-square analyses, and ordinal logistic regression, facilitating a nuanced examination of the collected data.FindingsThe empirical outcomes delineate a predominant awareness among respondents regarding the latent heritage potential intrinsic to the surveyed site. Moreover, the populace demonstrates a cognizance of the consequential role that the conservation of said site can play in fostering economic, social, and cultural development within their urban milieu. Subsequent statistical scrutiny discloses a discernible correlation between respondents' attitudes and demographic variables, particularly age and education.Research limitations/implicationsSeveral limitations warrant acknowledgment in this study. Primarily, the sample size, comprising 220 respondents, precludes its claim to statistical representativeness for the entire population. Additionally, the variables operationalized in this study to gauge residents' attitudes may benefit from refinement or expansion for enhanced precision. Despite these constraints, the amassed data proffer valuable insights into comprehending the levels of knowledge and attitudes prevalent among the local populace in Annaba regarding their archaeological site, Hippone. Future investigations would benefit from an expanded sample size to fortify the robustness of these findings.Originality/valueThis article discusses the importance of including local communities in heritage management, representing an exploration into the local population's knowledge, awareness, and attitudes concerning the imperative of conserving Algerian heritage.

The concept of cultural landscapes extends beyond the physical arrangement of landscape elements, encompassing social and cultural customs and economic dynamics in both tangible and intangible aspects of heritage. Instead of being confined to a linear evolutionary model of sacred-historic landscape development, these sites are understood to exist across different historical periods such as ancient, medieval, etc. reflecting their multifaceted nature.Design/methodology/approachThe paper utilizes a thorough and systematic examination of existing literature, covering several disciplines such as cultural studies, anthropology and environmental studies. The methodology prioritizes a holistic approach by including succinct discussion of many locations to improve the analysis. The collection of qualitative data on the cultural importance of eco-heritage involves conducting participant observations and focus group talks to capture a diverse range of perspectives.FindingsThe paper highlights the importance of preserving and interpreting cultural landscapes as living, evolving entities. By recognizing diverse layers of history and cultural significance within these sites, research suggests strategies for integrating sustainable practices in the management of cultural landscapes.Originality/valueThis work makes a substantial contribution to the academic field by examining the intersection where cultural heritage and eco-transformations converge.
