The correspondence between the term"Site Museum"and the Chinese definition of"遗址博物馆(Yizhibowuguan)"still requires in-depth exploration.Nevertheless,such museums play a significant role in the field of cultural heritage preservation in many countries and regions.In the context of the large-scale construction of 遗址博物馆(Yizhibowuguan)in China,it is of theoretical and practical value to rethink site museums'definitions and characteristics.The quantity and quality of existing research on the integration and analysis of English definitions of"Site Museum"are insufficient and can be improved.Upon meticulous review of the historical evolution of"Site Museum"English definitions,the historical context,specificity,and value are elucidated,with case studies providing empirical corroboration.Insights for future research and development in this field are subsequently revealed through this exploration.
