Previous cultural inventories of imagination, thinking and action in the present do not meet the justification for a cultural heritage. A cultural heritage must legitimize itself on unavailability, on "something" beyond that, like identity and customs for instance. Cultural heritage outclasses the time to a certain degree and coevally it ennobles and sacralizes the space in which it is located or will be placed. This placing at the same time leads to a canonisation of cultural heritage. Due to a culturalisation of the world, the culture-heredity potential is almost inexhaustible.
