1985-2007 – Royal Palaces of Abomey / Palais Royales d’Abomey (Criteria iii – iv)
Brief description From 1625 to 1900, 12 kings succeeded one another at the head of the powerful Kingdom of Abomey. With the exception of King Akaba, who had his own separate enclosure, they all had their palaces built within the same cob-wall area, in keeping with previous palaces as regards the use of space and materials. The royal palaces of Abomey are a unique reminder of this vanished kingdom Briève description De 1625 à 1900, douze rois se succédèrent à la tête du puissant royaume d'Abomey. A l'exception du roi Akaba, qui utilisa un enclos distinct, chacun fit édifier son palais à l'intérieur d'un enclos entouré de murs de pisé tout en conservant certaines caractéristiques de l'architecture des palais précédents dans l'organisation de l'espace et le choix des matériaux. Les palais d'Abomey fournissent un témoignage exceptionnel sur un royaume disparu Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre:

2009 – The Ruins of Loropéni / Ruines de Loropéni (Criteria iii)
Brief description
The 11,130m2 property, the first to be inscribed in the country, with its imposing stone walls is the best
preserved of ten fortresses in the Lobi area and is part of a larger group of 100 stone enclosures that
bear testimony to the power of the trans-Saharan gold trade. Situated near the borders of Côte
d’Ivoire, Ghana and Togo, the ruins have recently been shown to be at least 1,000 years old. The
settlement was occupied by the Lohron or Koulango peoples, who controlled the extraction and
transformation of gold in the region when it reached its apogee from the 14th to the 17th century.
Much mystery surrounds this site large parts of which have yet to be excavated. The settlement seems
to have been abandoned during some periods during its long history. The property which was finally
deserted in the early 19th century is expected to yield much more information.
Briève description
Ce premier site burkinabé est bardé de hauts murs et s’étend sur 11 130 m2. C’est la mieux préservée
des dix forteresses que compte la région du Lobi. Il s’inscrit aussi dans un ensemble plus large qui
compte une centaine d’enceintes en pierre, reflétant la puissance du commerce transsaharien de l’or.
Vieilles d’au moins mille ans selon des découvertes récentes, ces ruines sont situées près des
frontières du Togo et du Ghana. L’emplacement a été occupé par les Lohron ou les Koulango qui
contrôlaient l’extraction et la transformation de l’or dans la région à l’apogée de cette exploitation
aurifère (XIVème au XVIIème siècle). Beaucoup de mystère entoure ce site dont une large part n’a
pas encore été fouillée. Au cours de sa longue histoire, Loropéni semble avoir été abandonné à
plusieurs reprises. L’abandon définitif est intervenu entre le début et le milieu du XIXème siècle. Ce
site promet encore beaucoup d’informations.

2002 – Saint Catherine Area / Zone Sainte-Catherine (Criteria i – iii – iv – vi)
Brief description The Orthodox Monastery of St Catherine stands at the foot of Mount Horeb where, the Old Testament records, Moses received the Tablets of the Law. The mountain is known and revered by Muslims as Jebel Musa. The entire area is sacred to three world religions: Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. The Monastery, founded in the 6th century, is the oldest Christian monastery still in use for its initial function. Its walls and buildings are of great significance to studies of Byzantine architecture and the Monastery houses outstanding collections of early Christian manuscripts and icons. The rugged mountainous landscape, containing numerous archaeological and religious sites and monuments, forms a perfect backdrop to the Monastery. Briève description Le monastère orthodoxe de Sainte-Catherine est situé au pied du mont Horeb où, dans l'Ancien Testament, Moïse aurait reçu les Tables de la Loi. La montagne est également connue et révérée par les musulmans qui l'appellent djebel Musa. La zone tout entière est sacrée pour trois grandes religions répandues dans le monde entier : christianisme, islam et judaïsme. Le monastère, fondé au VI
e siècle,
est le plus ancien monastère chrétien ayant conservé sa fonction initiale. Ses murs et ses bâtiments sont très importants pour l'étude de l'architecture byzantine. Le monastère abrite des collections extraordinaires d'anciens manuscrits chrétiens et d'icônes. Le paysage montagneux et sauvage qui l'entoure comprend de nombreux sites et monuments archéologiques et religieux, et forme un décor parfait autour du monastère Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2005 - Wadi Al-Hitan (Whale Valley) / Wadi Al-Hitan (La vallée des Baleines) (Criterion viii)
38
Brief description Wadi Al-Hitan, Whale Valley, in the Western Desert of Egypt, contains invaluable fossil remains of the earliest, and now extinct, suborder of whales, the archaeoceti. These fossils represent one of the major stories of evolution: the emergence of the whale as an ocean-going mammal from a previous life as a land-based animal. This is the most important site in the world for the demonstration of this stage of evolution. It portrays vividly the form and life of these whales during their transition. The number, concentration and quality of such fossils here is unique, as is their accessibility and setting in an attractive and protected landscape. The fossils of Al-Hitan show the youngest archaeocetes, in the last stages of losing their hind limbs. They already display the typical streamlined body form of modern whales, whilst retaining certain primitive aspects of skull and tooth structure. Other fossil material in the site makes it possible to reconstruct the surrounding environmental and ecological conditions of the time. Briève description Wadi Al-Hitan, la Vallée des baleines, dans le désert occidental de l’Egypte, contient des restes fossiles inestimables du plus ancien, et maintenant éteint, ordre des baleines archaeoceti. Ces fossiles représentent l’une des étapes les importantes de l’évolution : les débuts de la baleine en tant que mammifère marin après avoir été mammifère terrestre. C’est le plus grand site au monde témoignant de cette époque de l’évolution. Il montre très clairement l’aspect et la vie de ces baleines pendant leur transition. Le nombre, la concentration et la qualité de ces fossiles sont uniques, tout comme leur accessibilité et leur présence dans un paysage attrayant et protégé. Les fossiles d’Al-Hitan montrent des jeunes archæocètes, dans les dernières étapes de la perte de leurs membres postérieurs. Ils présentent déjà la forme corporelle typiquement hydrodynamique des baleines modernes, tout en conservant quelques aspects primitifs du crâne et de la dentition. D’autres fossiles présents sur le site permettent la reconstruction de l’environnementales et les conditions écologiques de cette époque.

Brief description Massive erosion over the years on the Ethiopian plateau has created one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world, with jagged mountain peaks, deep valleys and sharp precipices dropping some 1,500 m. The park is home to some extremely rare animals such as the Gelada baboon, the Simien fox and the Walia ibex, a goat found nowhere else in the world Briève description Une érosion massive au cours des ans a formé sur le plateau éthiopien un des paysages les plus spectaculaires du monde, avec des pics, des vallées, et des précipices atteignant jusqu'à 1.500 m de profondeur. Le parc est le refuge d'animaux extrêmement rares, comme le babouin gelada, le renard du Simien ou Walia ibex, sorte de chèvre qu'on ne trouve nulle part ailleurs.

2006 - Harar Jugol, the Fortified Historic TownCriteria / Harar Jugol, la ville historique fortifiée (Criteria ii - iii - iv - v)
Brief description The fortified historic town of Harar is located in the eastern part of the country on a plateau with deep
48
gorges surrounded by deserts and savannah. The walls surrounding this sacred Muslim city were built between the 13th and 16th centuries. Harar Jugol, said to be the fourth holiest city of Islam, numbers 82 mosques, three of which date from the 10th century, and 102 shrines. The most common houses in Harar Jugol are traditional townhouses consisting of three rooms on the ground floor and service areas in the courtyard. Another type of house, called the Indian House, built by Indian merchants who came to Harar after 1887, is a simple rectangular two-storied building with a veranda overlooking either street or courtyard. A third type of building was born of the combination of elements from the other two. The Harari people are known for the quality of their handicrafts, including weaving, basket making and book-binding, but the houses with their exceptional interior design constitute the most spectacular part of Harar's cultural heritage This architectural form is typical, specific and original, different from the domestic layout usually known in Muslim countries. It is also unique in Ethiopia. Harar was established in its present urban form in the 16th century as an Islamic town characterized by a maze of narrow alleyways and forbidding facades. From 1520 to 1568 it was the capital of the Harari Kingdom. From the late 16th century to the 19th century, Harar was noted as a centre of trade and Islamic learning. In the 17th century it became an independent emirate. It was then occupied by Egypt for ten years and became part of Ethiopia in 1887. The impact of African and Islamic traditions on the development of the town's specific building types and urban layout make for the particular character and even uniqueness of Harar. Briève description La ville fortifiée de Harar est située dans la partie orientale du pays, sur un plateau encerclé par le désert et la savane et entaillé par de profondes gorges. Les murs ceignant cette ville sacrée musulmane ont été construits entre le XIIIe et XVIe siècles. Harar Jugol, connue comme la quatrième ville la plus sainte de l’Islam, compte 82 mosquées, dont trois datent du Xe siècle, et 102 sanctuaires. Mais l’aspect le plus spectaculaire du patrimoine culturel réside dans la maison harari traditionnelle avec son exceptionnelle conception intérieure. L’impact des traditions africaines et islamiques sur le développement des types de constructions de la ville et de ses plans urbains constitue son caractère particulier et unique.

2011 – Konso Cultural Landscape / Paysage culturel du pays konso (Criteria iii – v)
Brief description Konso Cultural Landscape is a 55km2 arid property of stone walled terraces and fortified settlements in the Konso highlands of Ethiopia. It constitutes a spectacular example of a living cultural tradition stretching back 21 generations (more than 400 years) adapted to its dry hostile environment. The landscape demonstrates the shared values, social cohesion and engineering knowledge of its communities. The site also features anthropomorphic wooden statues - grouped to represent respected members of their communities and particularly heroic events - which are an exceptional living testimony to funerary traditions that are on the verge of disappearing. Stone steles in the towns express a complex system of marking the passing of generations of leaders. Briève description Le Paysage culturel du pays konso est un site aride de 55 km², avec des terrasses en pierre et des fortifications, situé sur les hauts plateaux d'Ethiopie. Il constitue un exemple spectaculaire d'une tradition culturelle vivante remontant à vingt-et-une générations (plus de 400 ans) et adaptée à un environnement sec et hostile. Le paysage témoigne du partage des valeurs, de la cohésion sociale et des connaissances en ingénierie de ses communautés. Le site présente également des statues de bois anthropomorphiques, disposées en groupe pour représenter les membres respectés de leurs communautés et les événements héroïques de leurs vies. Elles sont un témoignage exceptionnel et vivant de traditions funéraires sur le point de disparaître. Les stèles de pierre présentes dans les villes expriment un système complexe marquant la disparition de générations de chefs. Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre:

2007 – Ecosystem and Relict Cultural Landscape of Lopé-Okanda
(Criteria iii -iv - ix-x)
Brief Description The Ecosystem and Relict Cultural Landscape of Lopé-Okanda demonstrates an unusual interface between dense and well-conserved tropical rainforest and relict savannah environments with a great diversity of species, including endangered large mammals, and habitats. The site illustrates ecological and biological processes in terms of species and habitat adaptation to post-glacial climatic changes. It contains evidence of the successive passages of different peoples who have left extensive and
50
comparatively well-preserved remains of habitation around hilltops, caves and shelters, evidence of iron-working and a remarkable collection of some 1,800 petroglyphs (rock carvings). The property’s collection of Neolithic and Iron Age sites, together with the rock art found there, reflects a major migration route of Bantu and other peoples from West Africa along the River Ogooué valley to the north of the dense evergreen Congo forests and to central east and southern Africa, that has shaped the development of the whole of sub-Saharan Africa. Outstanding Universal Value The Ecosystem and Relic Cultural Landscape of Lopé-Okanda represents an unusual interface between dense and well conserved tropical rainforest and relict savannah environments. A greater number of threatened species of large mammals find their last refuge in Lopé-Okanda than in any other comparable rainforest area in the Congo Rainforest Biogeographical Province. The property also preserves a record of biological evolution over the last 15,000 years of the still extant rainforest-savannah transition zone. The Lopé-Okanda National Park displays remarkable evidence for settlement stretching over 400,000 years from the Palaeolithic, through the Neolithic and Iron Age, to the present day Bantu and Pygmy peoples. The National Park includes the River Ogooué valley, one of the principle migration routes for the diffusion of people and languages, including the Bantu, to Central and Southern Africa, in the Neolithic and Iron Age, as evidenced in extraordinary number of substantial settlements sites and an extensive collection of rock art petroglyphs. The Lopé-Okanda National Park provides the oldest dates for the extension of the Tshitolien culture towards the Atlantic and it has revealed evidence of the early domestication of plants and animals and the use of forest resources. Criterion (iii): the rich archaeological ensembles of the middle stretches of the River Ogooué Valley demonstrate 400,000 years of almost continuous history. The archaeological sites have revealed the earliest date for the extension of Tshitolien culture towards the Atlantic, as well as detailed evidence for the early use of forest produce, cultivation of crops and the domestication of animals. Criterion (iv): the collection of Neolithic and Iron Age sites together with the rock art remains appear to reflect a major migration route of Bantu and other peoples along the River Ogooué valley to the north of the dense evergreen Congo forests from West Africa to central east and southern Africa, that has shaped the development of the whole of sub-Saharan Africa. The subsidiary Iron Age sites within the forest provide evidence for the development of forest communities and their relationship with present day peoples. Criterion (ix): The nominated property demonstrates an unusual interface between forest and savannah environments, and a very important manifestation of evolutionary processes in terms of species and habitat adaptation to post-glacial climatic changes. The diversity of species and habitats present are the result of natural processes and also the long-term interaction between man and nature. Criterion (x): The diversity of habitats and the complex relationship between forest and savannah ecosystems have contributed to a high biological diversity particularly in relation to the property's flora, making it one of the most outstanding areas in relation to floristic diversity and complexity in the Congo Rainforest Biogeographical Province. Over 1,550 plant species have been recorded, including 40 never recorded before in Gabon, and it is anticipated that once all the floristic surveys and research are completed the number of plant species could reach over 3,000. The property is of sufficient size to maintain the long-term ecological viability of its habitats and ecosystems. The conservation and management of the property is guided by a management plan for the period 2006-2011 which is supported by international cooperation, particularly through a number of international and national NGOs. Conservation and management of the property also benefits from a number of transboundary cooperation initiatives. Key management issues include the need to resolve conflicts from competing interests, and to raise awareness amongst local people on the importance of conserving this property and to involve them in its management. Control and regulation of commercial poaching is of priority as well as the need to fully enforce regulations banning commercial logging within the property. Additional financial, logistical and human resources need to be obtained to ensure the effective management of the property and its buffer zone. The authenticity of the archaeological sites and rock art site is intact. There is a need for consolidation of the excavated sites to be carried out to ensure that they are not eroded by natural or human processes. The integrity of the cultural sites lies mainly in their relationship to one another along the River Ogooué Valley corridor which facilitated waves of migrations and subsidiary, later archaeological sites which fan out along the lesser river valleys within the forest. It would be desirable if at some point in the
51
future that part of the river valley between the north-west corner of the National Park and the historic ensemble to the north-west could be included so that the integrity of the river corridor as a whole could be protected. The legal protective measures for the property are adequate to protect the cultural attributes of the landscape. Without a mission to the main archaeological sites in the River Ogooué Valley, details of the state of conservation of the cultural property cannot be recorded. Currently there are no active conservation measures undertaken on the archaeological sites. Although many of the sites are remote and this remoteness will help provide good protection, it would appear that over time consolidation and remedial work will be needed. High priority should be given to putting in place one or more staff with appropriate training for archaeological sites and cultural landscapes. Brève description Le bien présente une interface inhabituelle entre une forêt tropicale ombrophile dense bien conservée et un milieu de savane relique abritant un large éventail d’habitats et d’espèces, parmi lesquelles de grands mammifères en voie de disparition. Il illustre des processus écologiques et biologiques d’adaptation des espèces et des habitats aux changements climatiques postglaciaires. Cet ensemble regroupant des sites datant du néolithique et de l’âge du fer et incluant des vestiges d’œuvres d’art rupestre est le reflet d’un axe migratoire majeur emprunté par les Bantous et par d’autres peuples originaires d’Afrique de l’Ouest qui longeaient la vallée de l’Ogooué pour se rendre vers le nord des forêts sempervirentes denses du Congo et vers le centre, l’est et le sud du continent africain. Ces flux migratoires ont façonné le développement de toute l’Afrique subsaharienne. Valeur universelle exceptionnelle L'Écosystème et paysage culturel relique de Lopé-Okanda représente une interface inhabituelle entre une forêt tropicale humide dense et bien conservée et des milieux de savane reliques. Les espèces menacées de grand mammifères trouvent davantage un dernier refuge à Lopé-Okanda que dans toute autre zone comparable de forêts pluviales de la Province biogéographique des forêts ombrophiles du Congo. Le bien préserve aussi des archives de l'évolution biologique - depuis 15 000 ans - de la zone de transition forêts pluviales-savane qui subsiste encore. Le Parc national de Lopé-Okanda présente un témoignage remarquable de peuplement sur plus de 400 000 ans - depuis le Paléolithique, le Néolithique et l'Âge du Fer, jusqu'aux populations bantoues et pygmées actuelles. Le Parc national comprend la vallée du fleuve Ogooué, l'un des principaux itinéraires migratoires de diffusion des populations et des langues - dont le bantou - vers l'Afrique centrale et australe, au Néolithique et à l'Âge de Fer, comme en témoigne le nombre extraordinaire d'importants sites de peuplement et un imposant ensemble de pétroglyphes rupestres. Le Parc national de Lopé-Okanda abrite les plus anciens témoignages de l'extension de la culture tshitolienne vers l'Atlantique et il a révélé des traces de domestication de plantes et d'animaux et d'utilisation des ressources forestières. Critère (iii): Les riches ensembles archéologiques de la partie médiane de la vallée du fleuve Ogooué témoignent de 400 000 années d'une histoire quasiment ininterrompue. Les sites archéologiques témoignent de la plus ancienne date d'extension de la culture tshitolienne vers l'Atlantique, et attestent de manière détaillée d'une utilisation très ancienne de produits de la forêt, de pratiques culturales et de domestication d'animaux. Critère (iv): L'ensemble de sites du Néolithique et de l'Âge du Fer, ainsi que les vestiges d'art rupestre semblent attester d'un important itinéraire migratoire de populations bantoues et autres le long de la vallée du fleuve Ogooué vers le nord des forêts denses persistantes du Congo, d'Afrique de l'Ouest en direction du centre de l'Afrique de l'Est et de l'Afrique australe. Cette migration a forgé l'évolution de l'ensemble de l'Afrique subsaharienne. Les sites secondaires de l'Âge du Fer découverts en forêt témoignent de l'évolution de communautés forestières et de leurs relations avec les populations actuelles. Critère (ix): Le bien proposé présente une interface inhabituelle entre des milieux de savane et de forêt, ainsi qu'un témoignage très important de processus d'évolution sous forme d'adaptation des espèces et des habitats à des changements climatiques post-glaciaires. La diversité des espèces et des habitats que l'on y trouve est le résultat de processus naturels ainsi que de l'interaction à long terme entre l'homme et la nature. Critère (x): La diversité des habitats et les relations complexes entre les écosystèmes de forêt et de savane ont donné une diversité biologique élevée, en particulier floristique, qui fait du bien l'une des zones les plus exceptionnelles du point de vue de la diversité et de la complexité de la flore dans la Province biogéographique des forêts ombrophiles du Congo. Plus de 1 550 espèces de plantes ont été décrites, parmi lesquelles 40 n'avaient jamais encore été recensées au Gabon et l'on pense que,
52
lorsque les recensements et les travaux de recherche sur la flore seront terminés, le nombre de plantes pourrait atteindre 3 000. Le bien est de taille suffisante pour maintenir la viabilité écologique à long terme des habitats et des écosystèmes. La conservation et la gestion du bien sont guidées par un plan d'aménagement couvrant la période 2006-2011 qui bénéficie de la coopération internationale et en particulier de l'appui de plusieurs ONG nationales et internationales. La conservation et la gestion du bien bénéficient en outre de plusieurs initiatives de coopération transfrontalière. Les problèmes de gestion clés sont, notamment, la nécessité de résoudre les conflits entre des intérêts concurrents, de sensibiliser la population locale à l'importance de la conservation de ce bien et de la faire participer à sa gestion. Il faut, en priorité, contrôler et réglementer le braconnage commercial et appliquer intégralement les règlements qui interdisent l'exploitation commerciale du bois dans le bien. Il faudra aussi obtenir des ressources financières, logistiques et humaines supplémentaires pour garantir une gestion efficace du bien et de sa zone tampon. L'authenticité des sites archéologiques et du site d'art rupestre est intacte. Il conviendrait de consolider les sites fouillés pour veiller à empêcher leur érosion par des processus naturels ou humains. L'intégrité des sites culturels réside essentiellement dans leurs relations mutuelles le long du couloir de la vallée de l'Ogooué, qui a facilité les vagues migratoires, et dans des sites archéologiques plus tardifs et secondaires répartis dans des vallées fluviales de moindre importance dans la forêt. Il serait souhaitable de pouvoir inclure ultérieurement cette partie de la vallée fluviale entre le coin nord-ouest du Parc national et l'ensemble historique vers le nord-ouest, de manière à pouvoir protéger l'intégrité de l'ensemble du couloir fluvial. Les mesures juridiques de protection conviennent pour protéger les éléments culturels du paysage. En l'absence de mission sur les principaux sites archéologiques de la vallée du fleuve Ogooué, il n'est pas possible d'enregistrer en détail l'état de conservation du bien culturel. Actuellement, aucune mesure active de conservation n'est entreprise sur les sites archéologiques. Malgré l'isolement de nombre de ces sites - et cet isolement contribuera à assurer une bonne protection - il semblerait qu'il faille effectuer des travaux de consolidation et de redressement au cours du temps. Il faudrait, en toute première priorité, affecter sur le site une ou deux personnes correctement formées en matière de sites archéologiques et de paysages culturels.

2006 - Stone Circles of Senegambia / Cercles méegalithiques de Sénégambie (Criteria i - iii)
Brief description Consisting of four large groups of stone circles that represent an extraordinary concentration of over 1,000 monuments in a band 100 km wide along some 350 km of the River Gambia. The four groups, Sine Ngayène, Wanar, Wassu and Kerbatch cover 93 stone circles and numerous tumuli, burial
54
mounds, some of which have been excavated to reveal material that suggest dates between 3rd century BC and 16th century AD. Together the stone circles of laterite pillars and their associated burial mounds present a vast sacred landscape created over more than 1,500 years. It reflects a prosperous, highly organized and lasting society. The stones were quarried with iron tools and skillfully shaped into almost identical cylindrical or polygonal seven-ton pillars, on average about two metres high. Each circle contains between 8 and 14 pillars and is 4 to 6 metres across. All are located near the burial mounds. This outstanding site is representative of a much wider megalithic zone in the region, which in terms of size, consistency, and complexity appears to be unrivalled anywhere in the world. The finely worked individual stones display precise and skillful working practices and contribute to the imposing order and grandeur of the overall complexes.

Kenya
1997 – Mount Kenya National Park / Natural Forest / Parc National / Forêt naturelle du mont Kenya (Criteria vii – ix)
Brief description At 5,199 m, Mount Kenya is the second highest peak in Africa. It is an ancient extinct volcano, during whose period of activity (3.1–2.6 million years ago) it is thought to have risen to 6,500 m. There are 12 remnant glaciers on the mountain, all receding rapidly, and four secondary peaks that sit at the head of the U-shaped glacial valleys. With its rugged glacier-clad summits and forested middle slopes, Mount Kenya is one of the most impressive landscapes in East Africa. The evolution and ecology of its afro-alpine flora also provide an outstanding example of ecological processes Briève description Le mont Kenya, avec une altitude de 5 199 m, est le deuxième sommet du continent africain. C'est un ancien volcan, qui fut en activité de 3,1 millions d'années jusqu'à 2,6 millions d'années avant notre ère et qui s'élevait alors probablement à 6 500 m. La montagne recèle encore les vestiges de douze glaciers, tous en régression rapide, et comporte quatre pics secondaires surplombant des vallées glaciaires échancrées en forme de U. Avec ses sommets accidentés couronnés de glaciers et ses pentes intermédiaires boisées, le mont Kenya représente l'un des paysages les plus imposants d'Afrique de l'Est.

2007 – Forêts humides de l’Atsinanana (Criteria ix – x)
Brief Description The Rainforests of the Atsinanana comprise six national parks distributed along the eastern part of the island. These relict forests are critically important for maintaining ongoing ecological processes necessary for the survival of Madagascar’s unique biodiversity, which reflects the island’s geological history. Having completed its separation from all other land masses more than 60 million years ago, Madagascar’s plant and animal life evolved in isolation. The rainforests are inscribed for their importance to both ecological and biological processes as well as their biodiversity and the threatened species they support. Many species are rare and threatened especially primates and lemurs.
66
Outstanding Universal Value The Rainforests of the Atsinanana are a serial property comprising six components. They contain globally outstanding biodiversity and have an exceptional proportion of endemic plant and animal species. The level of endemism within the property is approximately 80 to 90 percent for all groups, and endemic families and genera are common. The serial property comprises a representative selection of the most important habitats of the unique rainforest biota of Madagascar, including many threatened and endemic plant and animal species. Criterion (ix): The Rainforests of the Atsinanana are relict forests, largely associated with steeper terrain along the eastern escarpment and mountains of Madagascar. The protected areas included in this serial property have become critically important for maintaining ongoing ecological processes necessary for the survival of Madagascar's unique biodiversity. This biodiversity reflects Madagascar's geological history and geographic placement. It is the world's fourth largest island and has been separated from all other land masses for at least 60-80 million years and thus most of its plant and animal life has evolved in isolation. These forests have also offered important refuge for species during past periods of climate change and will be essential for the adaptation and survival of species in the light of future climate change. Criterion (x): The level of endemism within the property is approximately 80 to 90 percent for all groups, and endemic families and genera are common. Madagascar is among the top countries known for their "megadiversity" and features an extraordinarily high number (circa 12,000) of endemic plant species. The property is also globally significant for fauna, especially primates, with all five families of Malagasy primates, all endemic lemur families, seven endemic genera of Rodentia, six endemic genera of Carnivora, as well as several species of Chiroptera represented. Of the 123 species of non-flying mammals in Madagascar (72 of which are on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species), 78 occur within the property. The critical importance of the property is underlined by the fact that deforestation has left eastern Madagascar with only 8.5 percent of its original forests and the property protects key areas of this remaining habitat. All components of the serial property are formally protected as national parks and have management plans in place. Key management issues include effective control of agricultural encroachment and resource exploitation from logging, hunting, and gem mining. These issues require the implementation of clear and coordinated management strategies to manage the components of this serial property as a single entity. Also, coordinated planning and management of this serial property with adjacent protected areas and forest corridors is required, for which additional financial and human resources need to be obtained. There is potential for further extension of the property to include adjacent protected areas and forest corridors once they meet the conditions of integrity. Brève description Les forêts humides de l’Atsinanana comprennent six parcs nationaux répartis le long des marges orientales de l’île. Ces forêts anciennes sont très importantes pour le maintien des processus écologiques nécessaires à la survie de la biodiversité unique de Madagascar. Celle-ci reflète l’histoire géologique de l’île : en raison de sa séparation des autres masses terrestres il y a plus de 60 millions d’années, Madagascar abrite une flore et une faune qui ont évolué isolément. Inscrites pour leur importance tant pour les processus écologiques que biologiques, les forêts humides le sont également pour leur biodiversité et les espèces menacées qu’elles hébergent, notamment pour les primates et les lémuriens. Valeur universelle exceptionnelle Les forêts pluviales d'Atsinanana sont un bien sériel qui comprend six éléments. On y trouve une diversité biologique exceptionnelle au niveau mondial et une quantité extraordinaire d'espèces végétales et animales endémiques. Dans le bien, le taux d'endémisme avoisine 80 à 90 pour cent pour tous les groupes, et les familles et genres endémiques sont communs. Le bien sériel comprend une sélection représentative des habitats les plus importants du biote unique des forêts pluviales de Madagascar, y compris de nombreuses espèces animales et végétales menacées et endémiques. Critère (ix): les forêts pluviales d'Atsinanana sont des forêts reliques, essentiellement associées à des terrains abrupts le long de l'escarpement et des montagnes de l'est de Madagascar. Les zones protégées comprises dans ce bien sériel ont acquis une importance critique pour le maintien de processus écologiques en cours nécessaires à la survie de la biodiversité unique de Madagascar. Cette biodiversité est le reflet de l'histoire géologique et de la situation géographique de l'île. Madagascar est la quatrième plus grande île du monde ; elle est séparée de toute autre masse terrestre depuis au moins 60 à 80 millions d'années de sorte que la majorité de ses plantes et de ses animaux ont évolué dans l'isolement. Ces forêts ont également été un important refuge pour des espèces durant les périodes passées de changements climatiques et joueront un rôle essentiel pour l'adaptation et la survie des espèces à la lumière des futurs changements climatiques.
67
Critère (x): à l'intérieur du bien, le taux d'endémisme est d'environ 80 à 90 pour cent pour tous les groupes, et les familles et genres endémiques sont communs. Madagascar est parmi les premiers pays de mégadiversité du monde et possède un nombre extraordinairement élevé (env. 12 000) d'espèces de plantes endémiques. Le bien revêt aussi une importance mondiale pour la faune, en particulier les primates : les cinq familles de primates malgaches, toutes les familles de lémuriens endémiques, sept genres endémiques de rongeurs, six genres endémiques de carnivores et plusieurs espèces de chiroptères y sont représentés. Sur les 123 espèces de mammifères non volants de Madagascar (dont 72 sont sur la Liste rouge de l'UICN des espèces menacées), 78 sont présentes à l'intérieur du bien. L'importance critique du bien est encore renforcée par le fait que la déforestation n'a laissé, dans l'est de Madagascar, que 8,5 pour cent des forêts d'origine et le bien protège des zones clés de cet habitat restant. Tous les éléments du bien sériel sont officiellement protégés en tant que parcs nationaux et ont des plans de gestion en application. Les problèmes de gestion clés sont le contrôle efficace de l'empiétement agricole et de l'exploitation des ressources (exploitation du bois, chasse et exploitation minière de gemmes). Pour résoudre ces problèmes, il faudra appliquer des stratégies de gestion claires et coordonnées afin de gérer les éléments de ce bien sériel comme une seule et unique entité. Une planification et une gestion coordonnée de ce bien sériel avec les aires protégées et les corridors forestiers adjacents sont également requises et, pour cela, il faudra obtenir des ressources financières et humaines additionnelles. Il existe une possibilité d'extension du bien pour inclure des aires protégées et des corridors forestiers adjacents dès que ces éléments rempliront les conditions d'intégrité.

2006 - Chongoni Rock Art Area / Art rupestre de Chongoni (Criteria iii - vi)
Brief description Situated within a cluster of forested granite hills and covering an area of 126.4 km2, high up the plateau of central Malawi, the area features the richest concentration of rock art in Central Africa on 127 sites. They reflect the comparatively scarce tradition of farmer rock art, as well as paintings by BaTwa hunter-gatherers who inhabited the area from the Late Stone Age. The Chewa agriculturalists, whose ancestors lived in the area from the late Iron Age, practised rock painting until well into the 20th century. The symbols in the rock art, which are strongly associated with women, still have cultural relevance amongst the Chewa, and the sites are actively associated with ceremonies and rituals.

2004 - Tomb of Askia / Tombeau des Askia (Criteria ii - iii - iv)
Brief description The dramatic 17-m pyramidal structure of Le Tombeau des Askia was built by Askia Mohamed, the Emperor of Songhai, in 1495 in his capital Gao. It bears testimony to the power and riches of the Empire that flourished in the 15th and 16th centuries through its control of the trans Saharan trade, notably in salt and gold. It is also a fine example of the monumental mud-building traditions of the West African Sahel. The complex, including the pyramidal tomb, two flat roofed mosque buildings, the mosque cemetery, and the open air assembly ground, was built when Gao became the capital of the Songhai Empire and after Askia Mohamed had returned from Mecca and made Islam the official religion of the Empire. Briève description La spectaculaire structure pyramidale du Tombeau des Askia, édifiée par Askia Mohamed, Empereur du Songhaï, en 1495 dans sa capitale Gao, témoigne de la puissance et de la richesse de l’empire qui s’épanouit aux XV
e et XVI
e siècles grâce au contrôle du commerce transsaharien, notamment du sel
et de l’or. L’ensemble, y compris la tombe pyramidale, les deux mosquées à toit plat, le cimetière de la mosquée et l’espace des assemblées en plein air, fut édifié lorsque Gao devint la capitale de l’Empire Songhaï et après qu’Askia Mohamed ait fait de l’Islam la religion officielle de l’Empire à son retour de La Mecque.

1989 – Banc d’Arguin National Park /Parc national du banc d’Arguin (Criteria ix – x)
Brief description Fringing the Atlantic coast, the park comprises sand-dunes, coastal swamps, small islands and shallow coastal waters. The contrast between the harsh desert environment and the biodiversity of the marine zone has resulted in a land- and seascape of outstanding natural significance. A wide variety of migrating birds spend the winter there. Several species of sea turtle and dolphin, used by the fishermen to attract shoals of fish, can also be found. Briève description Situé le long de la côte atlantique, ce parc est formé de dunes de sable, de zones côtières marécageuses, de petites îles et d'eaux littorales peu profondes. L'austérité du désert et la richesse biologique de la zone marine créent un paysage terrestre et marin exceptionnellement contrasté. Une remarquable diversité d'oiseaux migrateurs y passent l'hiver.

Brief description Founded in the 11th and 12th centuries to serve the caravans crossing the Sahara, these trading and religious centres became focal points of Islamic culture. They have managed to preserve an urban fabric that evolved between the 12th and 16th centuries. Typically, houses with patios crowd along narrow streets around a mosque with a square minaret. They illustrate a traditional way of life centred on the nomadic culture of the people of the western Sahara Briève description Cités fondées aux XI

Mauritius / Île Maurice
2003 - Aapravasi Ghat (Criterion vi)
75
Brief description In the district of Port Louis, is the 1,640 m2 site where the modern indentured labour diaspora began. In 1834, the British Government selected the island of Mauritius to be the first site for what it called "the great experiment" in the use of "free" labour to replace slaves. Between 1834 and 1920, almost half a million indentured labourers arrived from India at Aapravasi Ghat to work in the sugar plantations of Mauritius, or to be transferred to Reunion Island, Australia, southern and eastern Africa or the Caribbean. The buildings of Aapravasi Ghat are among the earliest explicit manifestations of what was to become a global economic system and one of the greatest migrations in history.

2008 - Le Morne Cultural Landscape / Paysage culturel du Morne (Criteria iii - vi)
Brief description Le Morne Cultural Landscape, a rugged mountain that juts into the Indian Ocean in the southwest of Mauritius was used as a shelter by runaway slaves, maroons, through the 18th and early years of the 19th centuries. Protected by the mountain’s isolated, wooded and almost inaccessible cliffs, the escaped slaves formed small settlements in the caves and on the summit of Le Morne. The oral traditions associated with the maroons, have made Le Morne a symbol of the slaves’ fight for freedom, their suffering, and their sacrifice, all of which have relevance to the countries from which the slaves came - the African mainland, Madagascar, India, and South-east Asia. Indeed, Mauritius, an important stopover in the eastern slave trade, also came to be known as the “Maroon republic” because of the large number of escaped slaves who lived in Le Morne. Briève description Le Paysage culturel du Morne est une montagne accidentée qui s’avance dans l’océan Indien au sud-ouest de l’île Maurice a été utilisée comme refuge par les esclaves en fuite, les marrons, pendant le XVIIIème siècle et les premières années du XIXème. Protégés par les versants abrupts de la montagne, quasi-inaccessibles et couverts de forêts, les esclaves évadés ont formé des petits peuplements dans des grottes et au sommet du Morne. La tradition orale autour des marrons a fait de cette montagne le symbole de la souffrance des esclaves, de leur lutte pour la liberté et de leur sacrifice, des drames qui ont trouvé un écho jusque dans les pays d’où venaient les esclaves : le continent africain, Madagascar, l’Inde et le sud-est de l’Asie. L’île de Maurice, une grande escale du commerce des esclaves, a même été connue comme la « République des marrons » à cause du nombre important d’esclaves échappés qui se sont installés dans la montagne.

Morocco / Maroc
1981 – Medina of Fez / Médina de Fès (Criteria ii – v)
Brief description Founded in the 9th century and home to the oldest university in the world, Fez reached its height in the 13th–14th centuries under the Marinids, when it replaced Marrakesh as the capital of the kingdom. The urban fabric and the principal monuments in the medina – madrasas, fondouks, palaces, residences, mosques, and fountains – date from this period. Although the political capital was transferred to Rabat in 1912, Fez has retained its status as the country's cultural and spiritual centre. Fondée au IX
e siècle et abritant la plus vieille université du monde, Fès a connu sa période faste aux
XIIIe et XIV
e siècles, sous la dynastie mérinide, quand elle supplanta Marrakech comme capitale du
royaume. Le tissu urbain et les monuments essentiels de la médina remontent à cette période : médersa, fondouks, palais et demeures, mosquées, fontaines, etc. En dépit du transfert du siège de la capitale à Rabat, en 1912, elle garde son statut de capitale culturelle et spirituelle du pays.

1985 – Medina of Marrakesh / Médina de Marrakech (Criteria i – ii – iv – v)
Brief description Founded in 1070–72 by the Almoravids, Marrakesh remained a political, economic and cultural centre for a long period. Its influence was felt throughout the western Muslim world, from North Africa to Andalusia. It has several impressive monuments dating from that period: the Koutoubiya Mosque, the Kasbah, the battlements, monumental doors, gardens, etc. Later architectural jewels include the Bandiâ Palace, the Ben Youssef Madrasa, the Saadian Tombs, several great residences and Place Jamaâ El Fna, a veritable open-air theatre Briève description Fondée en 1070-1072 par les Almoravides (1056-1147), Marrakech fut longtemps un centre politique, économique et culturel majeur de l'Occident musulman, régnant sur l'Afrique du Nord et l'Andalousie. Des monuments grandioses remontent à cette période : la mosquée de la Koutoubiya, la Casbah, les remparts, les portes monumentales, les jardins, etc. Plus tard, la ville accueillera d'autres merveilles, tels le palais Bandiâ, la medersa Ben Youssef, les tombeaux saâdiens, de grandes demeures, etc. La place Jamaâ El Fna, véritable théâtre en plein air, émerveille toujours les visiteurs Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

Brief description The ksar, a group of earthen buildings surrounded by high walls, is a traditional pre-Saharan habitat.

1996 – Historic city of Meknes / Ville historique de Meknès (Criterion iv)
Brief description Founded in the 11th century by the Almoravids as a military settlement, Meknes became a capital under Sultan Moulay Ismaïl (1672–1727), the founder of the Alawite dynasty. The sultan turned it into a impressive city in Spanish-Moorish style, surrounded by high walls with great doors, where the harmonious blending of the Islamic and European styles of the 17th-century Maghreb are still evident today. Briève description Fondée au XI
e siècle par les Almoravides en tant qu'établissement militaire, Meknès devint capitale
sous le règne de Moulay Ismaïl (l672-1727), fondateur de la dynastie alaouite. Il en fit une impressionnante cité de style hispano- mauresque ceinte de hautes murailles percées de portes monumentales qui montre aujourd'hui l'alliance harmonieuse des styles islamique et européen dans le Maghreb du XVII
e siècle.

1997 – Archaeological site of Volubilis / Site archéologique de Volubilis (Criteria ii – iii – iv – vi)
Brief description The Mauritanian capital, founded in the 3rd century B.C., became an important outpost of the Roman Empire and was graced with many fine buildings. Extensive remains of these survive in the archaeological site, located in a fertile agricultural area. Volubilis was later briefly to become the capital of Idris I, founder of the Idrisid dynasty, who is buried at nearby Moulay Idris. Briève description La capitale de la Maurétanie, fondée au III
e siècle av. J.-C., fut un avant-poste important de l'Empire
romain et a été ornée de nombreux beaux monuments. Il en subsiste d'importants vestiges dans le site archéologique, situé dans une région agricole fertile. La ville devait devenir plus tard, pendant une brève période, la capitale d'Idriss I

1997 – Medina of Tétouan (formerly known as Titawin) / Médina de Tétouan (ancienne Titawin) (Criteria ii – iv – v)
Brief description Tétouan was of particular importance in the Islamic period, from the 8th century onwards, since it served as the main point of contact between Morocco and Andalusia. After the Reconquest, the town was rebuilt by Andalusian refugees who had been expelled by the Spanish. This is well illustrated by its art and architecture, which reveal clear Andalusian influence. Although one of the smallest of the Moroccan medinas, Tétouan is unquestionably the most complete and it has been largely untouched by subsequent outside influences Briève description Tétouan a eu une importance particulière durant la période islamique, à partir du VIII
e siècle, comme
principal point de jonction entre le Maroc et l'Andalousie. Après la Reconquête, la ville a été reconstruite par des réfugiés revenus dans cette région après avoir été chassés par les Espagnols. Cela est visible dans l'architecture et l'art qui témoignent de fortes influences andalouses. C'est l'une des plus petites médinas marocaines, mais sans aucun doute la plus complète, dont, ultérieurement, la majorité des bâtiments sont restés à l'écart des influences extérieures Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2004 - Portuguese City of Mazagan (El Jadida) / Ville portugaise de Mazagan (El Jadida) (Criteria ii - iv)
Brief description The Portuguese fortification of Mazagan, now part of the city of El Jadida, 90-km southwest of Casablanca, was built as a fortified colony on the Atlantic coast in the early 16th century. It was taken over by the Moroccans in 1769. The fortification with its bastions and ramparts is an early example of Renaissance military design. The surviving Portuguese buildings include the cistern and the Church of the Assumption, built in the Manueline style of late Gothic architecture. The Portuguese City of Mazagan - one of the early settlements of the Portuguese explorers in West Africa on the route to India - is an outstanding example of the interchange of influences between European and Moroccan cultures, well reflected in architecture, technology, and town planning. Briève description Les fortifications portugaises de Mazagan, qui font aujourd’hui partie de la ville d’El Jadida, à 90 km au sud-ouest de Casablanca, furent édifiées comme colonie fortifiée sur la côte atlantique au début du XVI
e siècle. La colonie fut reprise par les Marocains en 1769. Les fortifications, avec leurs bastions et
remparts, constituent un exemple précoce de l’architecture militaire de la Renaissance. Les édifices portugais encore visibles sont la citerne et l’église de l’Assomption, construite dans le style manuélin (gothique tardif). La ville portugaise de Mazagan, l’un des premiers établissements en Afrique occidentale des explorateurs portugais qui faisaient route vers l’Inde, offre un témoignage exceptionnel des influences croisées entre les cultures européenne et marocaine, qui apparaissent clairement dans l’architecture, la technologie et l’urbanisme.

Namibia
2007 – Twyfelfontein (Criteria iii - v)
Brief Description
Twyfelfontein or /Ui-//aes has one of the largest concentrations of rock petroglyphs (engravings) in Africa. Most of these well-preserved engravings represent rhinoceros, elephant, ostrich and giraffe, as well as drawings of human and animal footprints. The site also includes six painted rock shelters with motifs of human figures in red ochre. The objects excavated from two sections, date from the Late Stone Age. The site forms a coherent, extensive and high-quality record of ritual practices relating to hunter-gatherer communities in this part of southern Africa over at least 2,000 years, and eloquently illustrates the links between the ritual and economic practices of hunter-gatherers. Outstanding Universal Value The rock art forms a coherent, extensive and high quality record of ritual practices relating to hunter-gather communities in this part of southern Africa over at least two millennia and, eloquently reflects the links between ritual and economic practices of hunter-gatherers in terms of the value of reliable water sources in nurturing communities on a seasonal basis. Criterion (iii): The rock art engravings and paintings in Twyfelfontein form a coherent, extensive and high quality record of ritual practices relating to hunter-gather communities in this part of southern Africa over at least two millennia. Criterion (v): The rock art reflects links between ritual and economic practices in the apparent sacred association of the land adjacent to an aquifer as a reflection of its role in nurturing hunter-gather communities over many millennia. The integrity of the property is generally intact. The Twyfelfontein Country Lodge was permitted by the Conservancy in 1999/2000 within the Seremonienplatz rock engraving site in the buffer zone. This has severely compromised the integrity of the rock engravings in this area. All the rock engravings and rock paintings within the core area are without doubt the authentic work of San hunter-gatherers who lived in the region long before the influx of Damara herders and European colonists. The setting of the Twyfelfontein rock art is also authentic as other than one small engraved panel which was removed to the National Museum in Windhoek in the early part of the 20
th century, no
panels have been moved or re-arranged. The core area was designated a national monument in 1948 and is now protected by the National Heritage Act 2004. A buffer zone has been established and proclaimed. The overall state of conservation of the property has improved over the past few years, particularly in terms of the way visitors are managed. Implementation of the Management plan began in 2005. Brève description Twyfelfontein possède l’une des plus importantes concentrations gravures sur roche d’Afrique. La plupart de ces œuvres bien préservées représentent des rhinocéros, des éléphants, des autruches et des girafes, ainsi que des empreintes de pas d’hommes et d’animaux. Le bien comprend également six abris sous roche décorés de représentations humaines peintes à l’ocre rouge. Les vestiges mis au jour dans deux parties du site ont été datés de la fin de l’âge de pierre. Le site forme un ensemble cohérent, d’envergure et de qualité qui témoigne des pratiques rituelles des communautés de

chasseurs-cueilleurs dans cette partie d’Afrique australe pendant au moins deux millénaires ; il illustre de façon éloquente les liens entre les pratiques rituelles et économiques des chasseurs-cueilleurs. Valeur universelle exceptionnelle L'art rupestre forme un vaste ensemble cohérent et de haute qualité qui témoigne des pratiques rituelles relatives aux communautés de chasseurs-cueilleurs dans cette région de l'Afrique australe pendant au moins deux millénaires et est un reflet éloquent des liens entre les pratiques rituelles et économiques des chasseurs-cueilleurs, pour lesquels des sources d'eau capables de pourvoir à leurs besoins à certaines saisons étaient précieuses. Critère (iii): Les gravures et peintures rupestres de Twyfelfontein forment un vaste ensemble cohérent et de haute qualité qui témoigne des pratiques rituelles relatives aux communautés de chasseurs-cueilleurs dans cette région de l'Afrique australe pendant au moins deux millénaires. Critère (v): L'art rupestre reflète les liens entre les pratiques rituelles et économiques dans l'apparente association sacrée de la terre adjacente à l'aquifère comme reflet de son rôle dans les communautés qu'elle a nourries pendant plusieurs millénaires. L'intégrité du bien est généralement intacte. La zone de conservation a autorisé en 1999/2000 la construction du Twyfelfontein Country Lodge sur le site de roches gravées de Seremonienplatz, dans la zone tampon. Ceci a gravement compromis l'intégrité des gravures rupestres à cet endroit. Toutes les gravures et peintures rupestres de la zone principale sont sans aucun doute l'œuvre authentique des chasseurs-cueilleurs San qui vécurent dans la région longtemps avant l'arrivée des bergers Damara et des colons européens. L'environnement de l'art rupestre de Twyfelfontein est aussi authentique, puisque à l'exception d'un petit panneau gravé qui a été déposé au musée national de Windhoek au début du XXe siècle, aucun panneau n'a été déplacé ou réorganisé. La zone principale de l'art rupestre a été classée monument national en 1948 et elle est désormais protégée par le National Heritage Act 2004. Une zone tampon a été établie et a fait l'objet d'un décret. L'état général de conservation du bien s'est amélioré ces dernières années, particulièrement en termes de gestion des visiteurs. La mise en œuvre du plan de gestion a commencé en 2005. Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2005 - Osun-Osogbo Sacred Grove / Forêt sacrée d’Osun-Oshogbo (Criteria ii - iii - vi)
Brief description The dense forest of the Osun Sacred Grove, on the outskirts of the city of Osogbo, is one of the last remnants of primary high forest in southern Nigeria. Regarded as the abode of the goddess of fertility Osun, one of the pantheon of Yoruba gods, the landscape of the grove and its meandering river is dotted with sanctuaries and shrines, sculptures and art works in honour of Osun and other Yoruba deities. The Grove, which is now seen as a symbol of identity for all Yoruba people, is probably the
92
last sacred grove in Yoruba culture. It testifies to the once widespread practice of establishing sacred groves outside all settlements. Briève description La dense forêt sacrée d’Osun, à la périphérie de la ville d’Oshogbo, est l’une des dernières zones de la forêt primaire qui subsiste au sud du Nigeria. Elle est considérée comme la demeure d’Osun, une des divinités du panthéon yoruba. La forêt, sillonnée par la rivière Osun, abrite des sanctuaires, des sculptures et des oeuvres d’art érigés en l’honneur d’Osun et d’autres divinités yorubas. La forêt, désormais considérée par tout le peuple yoruba comme un symbole identitaire, est probablement la dernière forêt sacrée de la culture yoruba. Elle témoigne de la coutume, jadis très répandue, qui consistait à établir des lieux sacrés loin de toute habitation humaine.

1978 – Island of Gorée / Ile de Gorée (Criterion vi)
Brief description The island of Gorée lies off the coast of Senegal, opposite Dakar. From the 15th to the 19th century, it was the largest slave-trading centre on the African coast. Ruled in succession by the Portuguese, Dutch, English and French, its architecture is characterized by the contrast between the grim slave-quarters and the elegant houses of the slave traders. Today it continues to serve as a reminder of human exploitation and as a sanctuary for reconciliation Briève description Au large des côtes du Sénégal, en face de Dakar, Gorée a été du XV
e au XIX
e siècle le plus grand
centre de commerce d'esclaves de la côte africaine. Tour à tour sous domination portugaise, néerlandaise, anglaise et française, son architecture est caractérisée par le contraste entre les sombres quartiers des esclaves et les élégantes maisons des marchands d'esclaves. L'île de Gorée reste encore aujourd'hui un symbole de l'exploitation humaine et un sanctuaire pour la réconciliation. Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2006 - Stone Circles of Senegambia / Cercles méegalithiques de Sénégambie (Criteria i - iii)
Brief description Consisting of four large groups of stone circles that represent an extraordinary concentration of over 1,000 monuments in a band 100 km wide along some 350 km of the River Gambia. The four groups, Sine Ngayène, Wanar, Wassu and Kerbatch cover 93 stone circles and numerous tumuli, burial mounds, some of which have been excavated to reveal material that suggest dates between 3rd century BC and 16th century AD. Together the stone circles of laterite pillars and their associated burial mounds present a vast sacred landscape created over more than 1,500 years. It reflects a prosperous, highly organized and lasting society. The stones were quarried with iron tools and skillfully shaped into almost identical cylindrical or polygonal seven-ton pillars, on average about two metres high. Each circle contains between 8 and 14 pillars and is 4 to 6 metres across. All are located near the burial mounds. This outstanding site is representative of a much wider megalithic zone in the region, which in terms of size, consistency, and complexity appears to be unrivalled anywhere in the world. The finely worked individual stones display precise and skillful working practices and contribute to the imposing order and grandeur of the overall complexes.

2011 – Saloum Delta / Delta du Saloum (Criteria iii – iv – v)
98
Brief description Fishing and shellfish gathering have sustained human life in the 5,000 km2 property, which is formed by the arms of three rivers. The site comprises brackish channels encompassing over 200 islands and islets, mangrove forest, an Atlantic marine environment, and dry forest.The site is marked by 218 shellfish mounds, some of them several hundreds metres long, produced by its human inhabitants over the ages. Burial sites on 28 of the mounds take the form of tumuli where remarkable artefacts have been found. They are important for our understanding of cultures from the various periods of the delta's occupation and testify to the history of human settlement along the coast of West Africa. Briève description La pêche et la cueillette ont fourni des ressources vitales aux communautés humaines sur ce bien de 5000 km², formé par les bras de trois fleuves. Le site englobe des canaux d'eau saumâtre et près de 200 îles et îlots, des mangroves, un environnement maritime Atlantique et une zone boisée sèche.Le bien est marqué par 218 amas coquilliers, dont certains font plusieurs centaines de mètres de long, qui résultent de l'activité humaine au cours des millénaires. Sur ces amas coquilliers, on dénombre 28 sites funéraires en forme de tumulus. Des objets remarquables y ont été découverts, ce qui devrait permettre une meilleure compréhension des cultures associées aux différents âges de l'occupation du delta et témoigner sur l'histoire de l'occupation humaine le long des côtes de l'Afrique de l'Ouest.

1999 – Greater St. Lucia Wetland Park / Le parc de la zone humide de Sainte-Lucie (Criteria vii - ix - x)
Brief description The ongoing fluvial, marine and aeolian processes in the site have produced a variety of landforms, including coral reefs, long sandy beaches, coastal dunes, lake systems, swamps and extensive reed and papyrus wetlands. The interplay of the park's environmental heterogeneity with major floods and coastal storms and a transitional geographic location between subtropical and tropical Africa has resulted in exceptional species diversity and ongoing speciation. The mosaic of landforms and habitat
100
types creates breathtaking scenic vistas. The site contains critical habitats for a range of species from Africa's marine, wetland and savannah environments Briève description Les processus fluviaux, marins et éoliens permanents sur ce site ont créé un relief très varié avec des récifs coralliens, de longues plages de sable, des dunes côtières, des systèmes lacustres, des marais et des zones humides à papyrus et roseaux. L'hétérogénéité environnementale du parc- encore accentuée par des crues importantes et des tempêtes côtières- et sa localisation dans une zone de transition entre l'Afrique subtropicale et l'Afrique tropicale expliquent sa diversité spécifique exceptionnelle et la spéciation qui continue. La mosaïque de reliefs et de types d'habitat crée des panoramas uniques au monde.

2003 – Mapungubwe Cultural Landscape / Paysage culturel de Mapungubwe
(Criteria ii – iii – iv – v)
Brief description Mapungubwe is set hard against the northern border of South Africa, joining Zimbabwe and Botswana. It is an open, expansive savannah landscape at the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashe rivers. Mapungubwe developed into the largest kingdom in the sub-continent before it was abandoned in the fourteenth century. What survives are the almost untouched remains of the palace sites and also the entire settlement area dependent upon them, as well as two earlier capital sites, the whole presenting an unrivalled picture of the development of social and political structures over some 400 years. Briève description Mapungubwe est adossé à la frontière nord qui sépare l'Afrique du Sud du Zimbabwe et du Botswana. C'est un vaste paysage de savane parsemé d'arbres, de quelques épineux, de baobabs colossaux, autour de terrasses de grès s'élevant au-dessus de la plaine. Au confluent du Limpopo et de la Shashe et enjambant les routes nord/sud et est/ouest dans le sud de Afrique, Mapungubwe fut le plus grand royaume du sous-continent avant son abandon au XVI
e siècle. Il en survit des vestiges quasi
intacts des sites des palais, avec toute la zone de peuplement qui en dépend, et deux capitales antérieures. L'ensemble offre un panorama inégalé du développement de structures sociales et politiques sur quelque 400 ans. Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2004 - Cape Floral Region Protected Areas / Aires protégées de la Région florale du Cap (Criteria ix – x)
Brief description A serial site - in Cape Province, South Africa - made up of eight protected areas, covering 553,000-ha. The Cape Floral Region is one of the richest areas for plants in the world. It represents less than 0.5% of the area of Africa but is home to nearly 20% of the continent’s flora. The site displays outstanding ecological and biological processes associated with the Fynbos vegetation, which is unique to the Cape Floral Region. The outstanding diversity, density and endemism of the flora are among the highest worldwide. Unique plant reproductive strategies, adaptive to fire, patterns of seed dispersal by insects, as well as patterns of endemism and adaptive radiation found in the flora are of outstanding value to science. Briève description Ce site sériel situé dans la province du Cap, Afrique du Sud, est composé de huit aires protégées couvrant un total de 553 000 ha. La Région florale du Cap est l’une des zones les plus riches de la planète du point de vue végétal. Bien que représentant moins de 0,5% de la superficie de l’Afrique, elle abrite presque 20% de la flore du continent. Le site présente des processus écologiques et biologiques extraordinaires associés à la végétation du fynbos (brousse fine), végétation propre à la Région florale du Cap. La densité et l’endémisme de la flore, ainsi que sa remarquable diversité, sont parmi les plus élevés de la planète. Des phénomènes uniques au monde notamment en matière de stratégies de reproduction végétale, de réaction des plantes au feu, de pollinisation des plantes par les insectes, ainsi que des structures intéressantes d’endémisme et de rayonnement adaptatif confèrent à la région une valeur exceptionnelle pour la science.

2005 - Vredefort Dome / Dôme de Vredefort (Criterion viii)
Brief description Vredefort Dome, approximately 120km south west of Johannesburg, is a representative part of a larger meteorite impact structure, or astrobleme. Dating back 2,023 million years, it is the oldest astrobleme found on earth so far. With a radius of 190km, it is also the largest and the most deeply eroded. Vredefort Dome bears witness to the world’s greatest known single energy release event, which caused devastating global change, including, according to some scientists, major evolutionary changes. It provides critical evidence of the earth’s geological history and is crucial to our understanding of the evolution of the planet. Despite their importance to the planet’s history, geological activity on the earth’s surface has led to the disappearance of evidence from most impact sites and Vredefort is the only example on earth to provide a full geological profile of an astrobleme below the crater floor. Briève description Le dôme de Vredefort, à environ 120 km au sud-ouest de Johannesburg, est une partie représentative de la structure d’impact d’une météorite de très grande taille, ou astroblème. Datant de 2 023 millions d’années, c’est le plus ancien astroblème découvert sur Terre à ce jour. Avec un rayon de 190 km, c’est aussi le plus grand et le plus profondément érodé. Le dôme de Vredefort est le témoin de la plus grande libération d’énergie jamais connue sur la planète ; elle a causé des changements planétaires dévastateurs, parmi lesquels, selon certains scientifiques, des modifications majeures en termes d’évolution. Le dôme constitue un témoignage très important de l’histoire géologique de la planète et tient une place fondamentale dans notre compréhension de l’évolution de la planète. Les impacts de météorites ont joué un rôle important dans l’histoire de la Terre, mais l’activité géologique à la surface de la planète a conduit à la disparition des traces de la plupart des sites d’impact. Et le dôme de Vredefort est le seul exemple sur Terre qui fournisse un profil géologique complet d’un astroblème au-dessous du fond du cratère.

1999 (extension in 2005) - Fossil Hominid Sites of Sterkfontein, Swartkrans, Kromdraai, and Environs / Sites des hominidés fossiles de Sterkfontein, Swartkrans, Kromdraai et les environs (Criteria: iii - vi)
105
Brief description The Taung Skull Fossil Site, part of the extension, is the place where in 1924 the celebrated Taung Skull - a specimen of the species Australopithecus africanus - was found. Makapan Valley, also in the site, features in its many archaeological caves traces of human occupation and evolution dating back some 3.3 million years. The area contains essential elements that define the origin and evolution of humankind. Fossils found there have enabled the identification of several specimens of early hominids, more particularly specimens of Paranthropus, dating back between 4.5 million and 2.5 million years as well as evidence of the domestication of fire 1.8 million to 1 million years ago. It is an extension to the site inscribed in 1999. Briève description C’est sur ce site que le célèbre crâne fossile de Taung - un spécimen de l’espèce Australopithecus africanus – fut découvert en 1924. La vallée de Makapan, elle aussi sur ce site, abrite dans ses nombreuses grottes archéologiques des traces d’occupation et d’évolution humaines remontant à quelque 3,3 millions d’années. L’ensemble de la région contient des éléments essentiels définissant l’origine et l’évolution de l’humanité. Les fossiles trouvés ont permis l’identification de plusieurs spécimens des premiers hominidés, plus particulièrement du Paranthropus, vieux de 2,5 à 4,5 millions d’années, ainsi que des preuves de la domestication du feu il y a 1,8 million à 1 million d’années. Il s’agit d’une extension du site inscrit en 1999. Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2007 – Richtersveld Cultural and Botanical Landscape/Paysage culturel et botanique du Richtersveld (Criteria iv - v)
106
Brief Description The 160,000 ha Richtersveld Cultural and Botanical Landscape of dramatic mountainous desert in north-western South Africa constitutes a cultural landscape communally owned and managed. This site sustains the semi-nomadic pastoral livelihood of the Nama people, reflecting seasonal patterns that may have persisted for as much as two millennia in southern Africa. It is the only area where the Nama still construct portable rush-mat houses (haru om) and includes seasonal migrations and grazing grounds, together with stock posts. The pastoralists collect medicinal and other plants and have a strong oral tradition associated with different places and attributes of the landscape. Outstanding Universal Value The extensive communal grazed lands of the Richtersveld Cultural and Botanical Landscape are a testimony to land management processes which have ensured the protection of the succulent Karoo vegetation and thus demonstrates a harmonious interaction between people and nature. Furthermore, the seasonal migrations of graziers between stockposts with traditional demountable mat-roofed houses, |haru oms, reflect a practice that was once much more widespread over Southern Africa, and which has persisted for at least two millennia; the Nama are now its last practitioners. Criterion (iv): The rich diverse botanical landscape of the Richtersveld, shaped by the pastoral grazing of the Nama, represents and demonstrates a way of life that persisted for many millennia over a considerable part of southern Africa and was a significant stage in the history of this area. Criterion (v): The Richtersveld is one of the few areas in southern Africa where transhumance pastoralism is still practised; as a cultural landscape it reflects long-standing and persistent traditions of the Nama, the indigenous community. Their seasonal pastoral grazing regimes, which sustain the extensive bio-diversity of the area, were once much more widespread and are now vulnerable. The cultural landscape comprises all the elements linked to the transhumance lifestyle of the Nama pastoralists. The authenticity of the grazing areas and stockposts is incontrovertible. The authenticity of the traditional domed houses is mainly intact, despite the incorporation of some new materials along with the finely braided traditional mats. There are increasing numbers of young people interested in continuing the traditions. The Richtersveld Cultural and Botanical Landscape has full legal protection. The process of declaring the property as a Heritage Area was completed in early 2007. The traditional land-use system of the Nama should be seen as part of the protection system. A buffer zone has been established. The two key areas for conservation measures are sustaining the grazing areas and sustaining the tradition of building portable mat-roofed houses. The Richtersveld Community Conservancy (RCC) is managed by a Communal Property Association (CPA) with a Management Committee (company without profit) and a participative Management Plan is in place to manage the identified Heritage Area. The Management Plan, addresses management structures, infrastructure development, awareness raising, tourism development and monitoring and evaluation. It should provide support to the traditional management system rather than replacing it. Brève description La zone de conservation de la communauté du Richtersveld couvre une superficie de 160 000 ha de déserts montagneux spectaculaires dans le nord-ouest de l’Afrique du Sud. Il s’agit d’un paysage culturel dont la propriété et la gestion sont communales. Le peuple nama y mène un mode de vie pastoral semi-nomade, témoignant de schémas saisonniers qui peuvent avoir persisté pas moins de deux millénaires en Afrique australe. C’est le seul endroit où les Nama construisent encore leurs maisons portables couvertes de jonc (haru oms): la zone inclut les migrations saisonnières et zones de pâturage et les sites de campement temporaire. Les pasteurs collectent des plantes médicinales et autres et il semble qu’il existe une forte tradition orale associée aux différents lieux et attributs du paysage. Valeur universelle exceptionnelle Les vastes terres de pâturage communales du Paysage culturel et botanique du Richtersveld témoignent des processus de gestion de la terre qui ont assuré la protection de la végétation de plantes grasses du Karoo, démontrant ainsi l'interaction harmonieuse entre l'homme et la nature. Aussi, les migrations saisonnières des bergers d'un campement temporaire à un autre avec leurs maisons traditionnelles démontables à toit de nattes tressées, les |haru oms, reflètent une pratique qui fut jadis beaucoup plus répandue en Afrique australe et qui a persisté pendant au moins deux millénaires, et dont les Nama sont aujourd'hui les derniers représentants. Critère (iv): Le paysage botanique riche et varié du Richtersveld, modelé par les pratiques pastorales des Nama, présente un mode de vie qui a persisté pendant plusieurs millénaires dans une grande partie de l'Afrique australe et constitue une étape importante de l'histoire de la région.
107
Critère (v): Le Richtersveld est l'une des rares zones d'Afrique australe où le pastoralisme transhumant est encore pratiqué ; en tant que paysage culturel, il reflète les traditions anciennes et persistantes de la communauté indigène des Nama. Leur mode pastoral de pacage saisonnier, qui entretient la grande biodiversité de la région, fut autrefois plus répandu et est aujourd'hui vulnérable. Le paysage culturel comprend tous les éléments liés à la transhumance et au mode de vie pastoral des Nama. L'authenticité des zones de pâturage et des campements est indéniable. L'authenticité des maisons traditionnelles en forme de dôme est pour l'essentiel intacte en dépit de l'incorporation de certains matériaux nouveaux aux traditionnelles nattes finement tressées. Un nombre croissant de jeunes s'intéresse à la perpétuation des traditions. Le paysage culturel et botanique du Richtersveld dispose d'une protection légale complète. Le processus de déclaration du bien comme zone patrimoniale a été amorcé par les autorités provinciales et la municipalité du Richtersveld, et il a été achevé au tout début de l'année 2007. L'utilisation traditionnelle des terres développée par les Nama devrait être considérée comme faisant partie intégrante du système de protection. Une zone tampon a été établie. Les deux domaines clés pour les mesures de conservation sont le maintien des zones de pacage et le soutien de la tradition de la construction des maisons portables à toits de nattes. La zone de conservation de la communauté du Richtersveld (RCC) est gérée par une Association de propriété communale (CPA) dotée d'un comité de gestion (société sans but lucratif), et un plan de gestion participatif gère la zone patrimoniale identifiée. Le plan de gestion traite la structure de gestion, le développement de l'infrastructure, la prise de conscience des enjeux, le développement du tourisme ainsi que le suivi et l'évaluation. Le plan devrait soutenir le système de gestion traditionnel plutôt que de chercher à le remplacer. Documentation available at the ICOMOS Documentation Centre: - Nomination file

2003 – Gebel Barkal and the Sites of the Napatan Region / Gebel Barkal et les sites de la région napatéenne (Criteria i – ii – iii – iv – vi)
Brief description These five archaeological sites, stretching over more than 60 km in the Nile valley, are testimony to the Napatan (900 to 270 BC) and Meroitic (270 BC to 350 AD) cultures, of the second kingdom of Kush. Tombs, With And Without Pyramids, Temples, Living Complexes And Palaces, Are To Be Found On the site. Since Antiquity, the hill of Gebel Barkal has been strongly associated with religious traditions and folklore. The largest temples are still considered by the local people as sacred places Briève description Ces cinq sites archéologiques couvrent une région de plus de 60 kilomètres de long dans la vallée du Nil. Tous les sites sont de culture napatéenne (de 900 à 270 avant J.-C.) et méroïtique (de 270 avant J.-C.à 350 après J.-C.), de l'époque du second royaume de Kush. Les sites comprennent des tombeaux avec et sans pyramide, des temples, des bâtiments d'habitation et des palais. Depuis l'Antiquité, la colline de Gebel Barkal est demeurée intimement liée aux traditions religieuses et au folklore. Les temples majeurs y sont toujours considérés comme des lieux sacrés

Togo
2004 – Koutammakou, the Land of the Batammariba (Criteria v – vi)
Bried description The Koutammakou landscape in northeastern Togo, which extends into neighbouring Benin, is home to the Batammariba whose remarkable mud Takienta tower-houses have come to be seen as a symbol of Togo. In this landscape, nature is strongly associated with the rituals and beliefs of society. The 50,000-ha cultural landscape is remarkable due to the architecture of its of Takienta tower-houses which are a reflection of social structure; its farmland and forest; and the associations between people and landscape. Many of the buildings are two stories high and those with granaries feature an almost spherical form above a cylindrical base. Some of the buildings have flat roofs, others have conical thatched roofs. They are grouped in villages, which also include ceremonial spaces, springs, rocks and sites reserved for initiation ceremonies. Briève description Le paysage du Koutammakou, situé dans le nord-est du Togo et s’étendant par-delà la frontière jusqu’au Bénin, abrite les Batammariba dont les remarquables maisons à tourelles en terre sont devenues un symbole du Togo. Dans ce paysage, la nature est étroitement associée aux rituels et aux croyances de la société. Le paysage culturel de 50 000 ha doit son aspect remarquable à ses Takienta, maisons à tourelles qui sont le reflet de la structure sociale, ainsi qu’à ses terres agricoles et ses forêts, et à l’association entre le peuple et le paysage. De nombreux édifices sont à deux étages, et ceux dotés d’un grenier sont caractérisés par une forme quasi-sphérique surmontant une base cylindrique. Certains bâtiments possèdent des toits plats, d’autres des toits de chaume coniques. Les maisons sont regroupées en villages qui comprennent également des espaces cérémoniels, des sources, des rochers et des sites réservés aux cérémonies d’initiation.

1979 – Site of Carthage / Site archéologique de Carthage (Criteria ii – iii – vi)
Brief description Carthage was founded in the 9th century B.C. on the Gulf of Tunis. From the 6th century onwards, it developed into a great trading empire covering much of the Mediterranean and was home to a brilliant civilization. In the course of the long Punic wars, Carthage occupied territories belonging to Rome, which finally destroyed its rival in 146 B.C. A second – Roman – Carthage was then established on the ruins of the first Briève description Fondée dès le IX
e siècle av. J.-C. sur le golfe de Tunis, Carthage établit à partir du VI
e siècle un
empire commercial s'étendant à une grande partie du monde méditerranéen et fut le siège d'une brillante civilisation. Au cours des longues guerres puniques, elle occupa des territoires de Rome, mais celle-ci la détruisit finalement en 146 av. J.-C. Une seconde Carthage, romaine celle-là, fut alors fondée sur ses ruines.

2001 – Tombs of Buganda Kings at Kasubi / Tombes des rois du Buganda à Kasubi (Criteria i – ii – iv – vi)
Brief description The Tombs of Buganda Kings at Kasubi constitute a site embracing almost 30 ha of hillside within Kampala district. Most of the site is agricultural, farmed by traditional methods. At its core on the hilltop is the former palace of the Kabakas of Buganda, built in 1882 and converted into the royal burial ground in 1884. Four royal tombs now lie within the Muzibu Azaala Mpanga, the main building, which is circular and surmounted by a dome. It is a major example of an architectural achievement in organic materials, principally wood, thatch, reed, wattle and daub. The site's main significance lies, however, in its intangible values of belief, spirituality, continuity and identity Briève description Les tombeaux des rois du Buganda à Kasubi s'étendent sur près de 30 ha de collines dans le district de Kampala. La plus grande partie du site est une zone agricole, exploitée selon les méthodes traditionnelles. Son centre, au sommet de la colline, est l'ancien palais des Kabakas du Buganda, construit en 1882 et transformé en cimetière royal en 1884. Quatre tombes royales se trouvent maintenant dans le Muzibu Azaala Mpanga, le bâtiment principal de plan circulaire et surmonté d'un dôme. C'est un exemple important de réalisation architecturale en matériaux organiques - bois, chaume, roseaux et enduits en particulier.

Elle a conservé un tissu et un paysage urbains quasiment intacts, et beaucoup de bâtiments superbes qui reflètent sa culture particulière, fusion d'éléments disparates des cultures africaines, arabes, indiennes et européennes sur plus d'un millénaire.

2006 - Kondoa Rock art Sites / Sites d'art rupestre de Kondoa (Criteria iii - vi)
Brief description Kondoa Rock Art Sites, on the eastern slopes of the Masai escarpment bordering the Great Rift Valley are natural rock shelters, overhanging slabs of sedimentary rocks fragmented by rift faults, whose vertical planes have been used for rock paintings over at least two millennia. The spectacular collection of images from over 150 shelters over 2,336 km2, many with high artistic value, displays sequences that provide a unique testimony to the changing socio-economic base of the area from hunter-gatherer to agro-pastoralist societies, and the beliefs and ideas associated with them. Some of the shelters are still considered to have ritual associations with the people who live nearby reflecting their beliefs, rituals and cosmological traditions.

2003 – Matobo Hills / Monts Matobo (Criteria iii – v- vi)
Brief description The area exhibits a profusion of distinctive rock landforms rising above the granite shield that covers much of Zimbabwe. The large boulders provide abundant natural shelters and have been associated with human occupation from the early Stone Age right through to early historical times, and intermittently since. They also feature an outstanding collection of rock paintings. The Matobo Hills continue to provide a strong focus for the local community, which still uses shrines and sacred places closely linked to traditional, social and economic activities. Briève description Le site présente une profusion de formes rocheuses remarquables s'élevant au-dessus du bouclier de granit qui couvre la plus grande partie du Zimbabwe.

Ils abritent une collection de peintures rupestres exceptionnelles. Les monts Matobo demeurent un centre important pour la communauté locale qui utilise toujours les lieux sacrés et les sanctuaires en étroite liaison avec leurs activités traditionnelles, sociales et économiques.
