الملخص EN

Downtowns of historical cities (the Ancient City) are considered the center of these cities because they represent different epochs of time witnessed by the city.

Hence, they symbolize the identity of the city, the fact that directed many researchers and planning specialists' attention to the topic of preserving them for future generations by finding mechanisms to implement international and local conventions pertaining to preservation of the identity of the city and its urban heritage.

Our ancient Iraqi cities, especially the cities of the holy shrines, including the ancient city of Najaf, are home to many archeological buildings, relic and Islamic buildings, signaling great importance to the heritage of the nation.

It is known that the restoration and renovation of the archaeology and heritage of these buildings is of great importance, especially with their spiritual, artistic, aesthetic, historical and cultural values.

The aim of preserving them is to reveal and protect those values, especially as they constitute a cultural and traditional treasure for our cities.

They are the real reflection of the balanced culture and heritage of Iraq over these long years, especially in the chaos of heritage and identity problems that we are witnessing nowadays.Therefore we should preserve the centers of city and show their scientific and cultural value by finding ways and strategies of implementing the international charters and legislations that concern the preservation of the urban heritage.
