Abstract: Exposing a previous reflection on the conceptual problems that the term Historical Heritage\npresents, this article has as a goal the identification of the keys of it�s nowadays\ncharacterization and the results that these may have for its future. For this purpose, it\nfocuses on an important fact: the progressive process that tends to consider man itself as\nheritage. This tendency is becoming more and more visible, and has deep effects on the\nprotection since it means the introduction of an important change in the characterization of\nheritage. This fact changes the role and the relation between man and heritage: from being\nthe patrimonial subject or the final repository of the public politics of protection, man itself\nis becoming to be the main object of the protection, the artefact or heritage intended to be\nprotected.
