ENThe necessity to include the anthropogenic components into the landscape structure became evident even in Lithuania, with its strong traditions of natural landscape geography, although this new tendency delivered the phenomenon of landscape mystification, which is determined by the following scientific and land management factors: a) structural organisation of cultural landscape, b) development of the methods of paraenergetic investigations, and c) new intentions in culture heritage protection. The author's position as to the landscape structure is presented in a special scheme. The main innovation of it is the information field or the mental and spiritual layer of the landscape, which might be called the landscape soul. This is an objective genetic cause for landscape mystification, because its cognition is enormously complex and not satisfactory. The phenomenon of landscape mystification has two different directions: • positive - concerned with endowing mysterious features to the cultural landscape, negative - methodologically misleading, taking illusion for truth. The positive mystification is usually connected with the concepts of associated and symbolised landscape. Both these concepts are very important for cultural heritage protection, but they need more strict determinations of theoretical principles as well as investigation methods.Otherwise landscape mystification becomes too intensive and may exceed the positive level. The common rule is that mystification is always related with the perceptive landscape associations and its structure of semantic images. In particular, it is very important in the urban landscape, with its great potential of associativeness and semiotic structures. The following secondary effects express the negative mystification: a) danger of reality gap, b) strengthening the subjectivism and c) discrimination of the natural landscape. Most pronounced of them is the latter, which is usually moved by a declaration of the total predomination of cultural landscape and priority of culture over nature. A special scheme reflecting the global extent of the natural and the cultural landscape types gives an evident example of the erroneousness of such methodological doctrine. All negative effects of landscape mystification arc unfavorable for land management, especially in seeking the ecological equilibrium and sustainable development of the environment.
