This is not a separate work: it is UNESCO's own World Heritage List inscription for Delos, one entry in the same continuously maintained official register this atlas also records as a general source. It descends from that register rather than standing beside it, so citing this entry alongside the general World Heritage List record, or alongside another of its entries, is one institutional voice, not corroboration. Its real limit is the register's own limit: an official designation record produced by the World Heritage Committee for the purpose of recognition and protection, not a scholarly history of the site or the traditions associated with it. Use it for this site's World Heritage status, inscription year and the criteria under which it was listed; a claim about its deeper history needs a dedicated historical or archaeological source.
Facts
Assessment
Reliability Tier2
UNESCO's World Heritage List inscription for Delos is the World Heritage Centre's own designation record, the middle tier reflecting an authoritative institutional listing rather than independent peer reviewed archaeological argument about the site's own history. NotesUNESCO's own World Heritage List entry for Delos (inscribed 1990); an official heritage-designation record, not a scholarly historical or archaeological study.

Derived From
