Aksum
['Unesco World Heritage Centre']
UNESCO World Heritage Centre
Several stelae survive in the town of Aksum dating between the 3rd and 4th centuries AD.
IntegrityThe boundaries of the property, which encompass the entire area of ancient Aksum town, need to be adequately delineated and approved by the Committee.
However, the authenticity of the whole property in terms of its ability to convey the scope and extent of ancient Aksum and its value is still vulnerable to lack of documentation, delineation and lack of planning controls.
Protection and Management RequirementsThe city of Aksum was put under the jurisdiction and protection of the National Antiquities Authority in 1958.
No special legal framework is provided to protect the Obelisks of Aksum, except the general law, Proclamation No.
