Adoption Des Déclarations Rétrospectives De Valeur Universelle Exceptionnelle Patrimoine mondial 39 COM WHC-15/39.COM/8E.Rev Paris, 22 juin 2015 Original: anglais/français ORGANISATION DES NATIONS UNIES POUR L’EDUCATION, LA SCIENCE ET LA CULTURE CONVENTION CONCERNANT LA PROTECTION DU PATRIMOINE MONDIAL, CULTUREL ET NATUREL Comité du patrimoine mondial Trente-neuvième session Bonn, Allemagne 28 juin – 8 juillet 2015 Point 8 de l’ordre du jour provisoire: Établissement de la Liste du patrimoine mondial et de la Liste du patrimoine mondial en péril 8E: Adoption des Déclarations Rétrospectives de Valeur Universelle Exceptionnelle RESUME Ce document présente un projet de décision concernant l’adoption de 81 Déclarations rétrospectives de valeur universelle exceptionnelle soumises par 27 États parties pour les biens n’ayant pas de Déclaration de valeur universelle exceptionnelle approuvée à l’époque de leur inscription sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial. L’annexe contient le texte intégral des Déclarations rétrospectives de valeur universelle exceptionnelle dans la langue dans laquelle elles ont été soumises au Secrétariat. Projet de décision : 39 COM 8E, voir point II. Le document annule et remplace le document WHC-15/39.COM/8E. I. HISTORIQUE 1. La Déclaration de valeur universelle exceptionnelle est un élément essentiel, requis pour l’inscription d’un bien sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial, qui a été introduit dans les Orientations en 2005. Tous les biens inscrits depuis 2007 présentent une telle Déclaration. 2. En 2007, le Comité du patrimoine mondial, dans sa décision 31 COM 11D.1, a demandé que les Déclarations de valeur universelle exceptionnelle soient rétrospectivement élaborées et approuvées pour tous les biens du patrimoine mondial inscrits entre 1978 et 2006, avant le lancement du deuxième cycle d’établissement de Rapports périodiques dans chaque région. 3. Par conséquent, dans le cadre de l’exercice de Rapports périodiques, les Etats parties ont rédigé, pour les biens du patrimoine mondial situés sur leur territoire, des projets de Déclarations rétrospectives de valeur universelle exceptionnelle qui sont examinés par les Organisations consultatives concernées. 4. Les 81 projets de Déclarations rétrospectives de valeur universelle exceptionnelle pour lesquelles le processus d’examen entre les Etats Parties et les Organisations consultatives a été finalisé depuis la 38e session du Comité du patrimoine mondial (Doha, 2014) sont présentés pour examen et adoption par le Comité du patrimoine mondial dans ce document. 5. Les projets de Déclarations rétrospectives proposés dans le projet de décision et en annexe sont présentés par région et par Etat Partie, dans l’ordre alphabétique. Elles se répartissent comme suit : Afrique (3), Etats arabes (1), Asie et Pacifique (7), Europe et Amérique du nord (55) et Amérique latine et les Caraïbes (15). L’annexe inclut un sommaire regroupant tous les sites concernés. 6. Suite à la décision 38 COM 8E, le Centre du patrimoine mondial poursuit l’harmonisation de tous les sous-titres dans les Déclarations de « Brève synthèse », « Critère(s) », « Intégrité », « Authenticité » et « Eléments requis en matière de protection et de gestion ». Le Centre du patrimoine mondial procède également à l’actualisation des Déclarations à la suite de décisions ultérieures du Comité du patrimoine mondial qui concernent les modifications de noms des biens du patrimoine mondial ainsi que les modifications mineures des limites. 7. Les 81 projets de Déclarations rétrospectives sont présentés dans la langue dans laquelle ils ont été reçus par le Secrétariat. Une fois adoptées, les Déclarations seront progessivement traduites et mises en ligne sur le site du Centre du patrimoine mondial en fonction de la disponibilité des fonds. II. PROJET DE DECISION Projet de décision: 39 COM 8E Rev Le Comité du patrimoine mondial, 1. Ayant examiné le document WHC-15/39.COM/8E.Rev, 2.

  • Chapter 5 Middle Palaeolithic Patterns of Settlement and Subsistence in The
    CHAPTER 5 MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC PATTERNS OF SETTLEMENT AND SUBSISTENCE IN THE SOUTHERN CAUCASUS DANIEL S. ADLER, NICHOLOZ TUSHABRAMISHVILI O Abstract. Occupying an intermediate position between Africa, Asia, and Europe the southern Caucasus has represented a northern geographic terminus for major expansions and migrations of human populations, both Archaic and Modern, throughout much of prehistory. During the Middle Palaeolithic, the high elevations and glaciated passes of the Caucasus served as a natural barrier to mobility in a northerly direction. Therefore the southern Caucasus provides an opportunity to examine Neanderthal behavioral patterns within an environmental and geographical cul de sac. Unfortunately, our current understanding of Middle Palaeolithic settlement and subsistence patterns within this region suffers from a dearth of well-excavated, dated, and documented sites. Previous excavations at the rockshelter Ortvale Klde, Djruchula Cave, and Bronze Cave, located in the western Georgian Republic, hint at a variable system of settlement and subsistence linked closely to prevailing environmental and topographical conditions. Although mountainous, warm, humid, and well forested, the numerous deep river valleys that drain the Caucasus form a patchwork of ecological niches populated by a wide array of floral and faunal species. The discontinuous nature of environmental communities and the natural impediments to mobility presented by deep valleys, fast rivers, and high elevations, likely influenced the settlement and subsistence behaviors of Neanderthals more than the cultural factors often cited. Likewise, we argue that climate change fed a cycle of regional abandonment and resettlement, which in turn fostered the technological diversity witnessed in the archaeological record. Traditional views of settlement and subsistence within the southern Caucasus are presented and evaluated in light of data retrieved during the recent re- excavation and dating of Ortvale Klde.

  • Nubian Levallois Technology Associated with Southernmost Neanderthals James Blinkhorn1,2*, Clément Zanolli3, Tim Compton4, Huw S
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Nubian Levallois technology associated with southernmost Neanderthals James Blinkhorn1,2*, Clément Zanolli3, Tim Compton4, Huw S. Groucutt5,6,10, Eleanor M. L. Scerri1,7,10, Lucile Crété4, Chris Stringer4, Michael D. Petraglia6,8,9 & Simon Blockley2 Neanderthals occurred widely across north Eurasian landscapes, but between ~ 70 and 50 thousand years ago (ka) they expanded southwards into the Levant, which had previously been inhabited by Homo sapiens. Palaeoanthropological research in the frst half of the twentieth century demonstrated alternate occupations of the Levant by Neanderthal and Homo sapiens populations, yet key early fndings have largely been overlooked in later studies. Here, we present the results of new examinations of both the fossil and archaeological collections from Shukbah Cave, located in the Palestinian West Bank, presenting new quantitative analyses of a hominin lower frst molar and associated stone tool assemblage. The hominin tooth shows clear Neanderthal afnities, making it the southernmost known fossil specimen of this population/species. The associated Middle Palaeolithic stone tool assemblage is dominated by Levallois reduction methods, including the presence of Nubian Levallois points and cores. This is the frst direct association between Neanderthals and Nubian Levallois technology, demonstrating that this stone tool technology should not be considered an exclusive marker of Homo sapiens. Given genetic evidence for interbreeding between Homo sapiens and Neanderthal populations 1–6, constraining when and where they may have encountered one another has broad ramifcations for understanding our shared heritage. With a wealth of chronometrically dated Palaeolithic sites concentrated in a relatively small area, a number of which preserve fossil hominin specimens, the Levant is a key region of focus to examine biological and behavioural diferences between these populations, as well as possible interactions between them.

  • Introduction
    The oldest photo of Darius's inscription in Behistun: A new document CIDOC 2018 Heraklion, Crete, Greece THE OLDEST PHOTO OF DARIUS'S INSCRIPTION IN BEHISTUN: A NEW DOCUMENT Keyvan Mahmoudi¹, Ali Rangchian² . ¹ Malek National Library and Museum Institution, Melal Mottahed St, 111555/547, Tehran, Iran ² Art faculty of Semnan University, Semnan University, Semnan, Iran [email protected] Abstract. Darius the Great’s engraving on Mount Behistun is the longest and one of the most precious pieces of the world's cuneiform inscriptions. Apart from retelling the initial events of the reign of Darius, decoding its tri- lingual royal text established the starting point for the field of Assyriology. It was thought that the first photographs of this monument were recorded by American scholar “Abraham Valentine Williams Jackson” in 1903. In this article, for the first time, we introduced an Iranian pioneer Iqbal al-Saltanah, known as Agha Reza Akkasbashi. He prevails the royal photographer in the court of Naser-al-Din Shah Qajar. Agha Reza’s photo of the Behistun inscription is 33 years older than Jackson's Images and shows the general status of this important inscription in the second half of the nineteenth century. Study of this important document can be seen from two different angles. First: an adequate understanding of the conservation status of the Behistun inscription in the nineteenth century and secondly: the history of Iranian’s documentation activities for historical monuments and sites. Keywords: Behistun, Photography, Assyriology Introduction On the 2800 - meter Behistun Mountain, 36 kilometers northeast of Kermanshah City, the inscription of Darius the Great is located and engraved on a cliff at a height of 100 meters, viewing the important historical road and the caravan route linking the land of Media and the central Iran to the Mesopotamian plains.

[email protected] Department of Archaeology and Ancient History Uppsala University, Sweden 1 ABSTRACT According to the currently favoured view among historians of the Persian Empire, the Bīsotūn Inscription is a deceitful piece of propaganda whose purpose was to resolve Darius’s legitimacy problem. To this effect, Darius cobbles a family relation with Cyrus and fabricates the story of a magus who impersonates Smerdis, son of Cyrus, and usurps the throne. This view, however, contradicts not only the Bīsotūn Inscription but also the ancient Greek testimonies. This article examines the arguments historians have given for their position. Since all views of the two issues in question are necessarily interpretations of the relevant sources that rely on argumentation, reasons and inferences must stand up to critical scrutiny. Keywords Achaemenid history; Bīsotūn Inscription; Persian Empire; Darius; Cyrus; Herodotus. 2 AMIR AHMADI The Bīsotūn Inscription - A Jeopardy of Achaemenid History Introduction The prevalent view of the Bīsotūn Inscription in contemporary histories of the Achaemenid Empire has two striking characteristics. The first one is that it contradicts the Bīsotūn Inscription and the classical sources regarding the rise of Darius on key points.

Our results show that Late Pleistocene geometric/ Dispersal microlithic technologies exhibit significant temporal and regional differences between each other. These Lithics Middle Palaeolithic differences suggest independent, convergent origins for these technologies, which are likely to have been Microlithic repeatedly re-invented. In contrast, we identify similarities between East African lithic technologies from MIS 8 onwards and Middle Palaeolithic assemblages as far east as India by MIS 5.
