This is not a separate work: it is UNESCO's own inscription record for the Mystery Play of Elche, one entry in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, the same continuously maintained official register this atlas also relies on for Ta'ziyeh, Ramlila and Kutiyattam.

UNESCO's own inscription record for the Mystery Play of Elche, one entry in the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, the same continuously maintained official register this atlas also relies on for Ta'ziyeh, Ramlila and Kutiyattam, the top tier reflecting an official designation record produced by the Intergovernmental Committee for the purpose of recognition and safeguarding. Use it for this practice's inscription status; a claim about its deeper history or meaning needs a source produced outside UNESCO.
