With the new technologies, public archaeology events have been changed and rapidly diversified. Moreover, archaeologists are becoming aware that collaborating with local communities in museum exhibitions, excavation and research projects, has benefits for archaeological processes. This study shows that rapidly evolving digital devices and methodologies offer creative opportunities for creating opportunities to gain archaeological knowledge and awakening cultural heritage awareness to the public. These methods, when applied through the appropriate technological medium, can improve the general public's appreciation for cultural heritage and galvanise support for its protection, which makes it a win-win for both parties. The study con-ducted with 45 visitors of The Faces of Juliopolis exhibition showed that by placing archaeological human remains and digitally supported informing methods have received substantial positive feedback from visitors; therefore, shows that the change is possible. With the assistance of more researchers engaged in digital tech-nology research and the adoption of equitable strategies, the public's awareness of archaeological heritage can increase. As a result, we can say that using modern approaches in archaeological contexts is a better way to attract the new generation in the manner of preserving and heritage knowledge. Juliopolis has been endan-gered by various key threats for decades. Yet we can say that the exhibition took in promoting and raising awareness of Juliopolis demonstrates that the site can endure the challenges it faces if it transcends being an archaeological site solely studied for scientific discovery and becomes a living heritage site understood and embraced by its diverse range of stakeholders.
