Hence, I would like to thank ICUCH for taking the initiative to publish this special edition. Therefore, it is ICO-MOS’s social and professional responsibility to raise awaren-ess of the importance of underwater cultural heritage and its protection. Compared to other types of cultural heritage, underwater cul-tural heritage suffers from a lack of recognition beyond the expert field, as it is by definition less visible, also stemming from the principle of in situ protection. I am therefore particularly proud of the fact that ICO-MOS experts played a crucial role in providing UNESCO with the scientific foundation for the Convention. The UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwater Cultural Heritage would not have been adop-ted without the scientific advice from underwater archaeology experts. One can trace an important part of the history of the relationship between human activities and the sea through the lens of norms and regulations. the salvage law, the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, and the UNESCO Convention on the Protection of the Underwa-ter Cultural Heritage are related to this area. At least three different areas of law, i.e. One of my favorite themes in the field of international heritage law is the protection of underwater cultural herita-ge.
