Abstract

A methodology for risk assessment has been developed, considering the main features of the archaeological site of Shobak Castle within the framework of AICS activities in Jordan. The site, as of the survey date, being an archaeolog-ical built environment, exhibits characteristics of a deteriorated urban setting with multiple needs and criticalities. Some areas have been subjected to archaeological excavation, temporary construction works, and subsequent surveys. To plan the reha-bilitation works to be carried out by the University of Florence and to establish priorities for long-term management by the Department of Antiquities of Jordan, a comprehensive analysis of the entire Shobak Castle site was conducted. This analysis assessed different levels of risk, both for people and buildings, in accordance with the principles outlined in the Italian Consolidated Act on Safety (Legislative Decree no. 81 of April 9, 2008, and subsequent amendments). The results of this work, which have been documented in various worksheets, are summarized in the risk matrix and a series of safety maps presented herein.
