What is a thesaurus ?
A thesaurus is the vocabulary of a controlled indexing language formally organized so that the a priori relationships between concepts are made explicit

Purpose of the HEREIN Thesaurus
The multilingual Thesaurus attached to the HEREIN project intends to offer a terminological standard for national policies dealing with architectural and archaeological heritage, as defined in the Convention of Granada (October 1985) and Valletta (January 1992)

Methodology
For each language, the construction of the Thesaurus was based on the use of the following three basic relationships among terms: equivalence, hierarchical and associative

Structure of the Thesaurus
Classes Each class forms a structured grouping of descriptors and non-descriptors around a top term
