It descends from that register rather than standing beside it, so citing this entry alongside the general Representative 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 Intergovernmental Committee for the purpose of recognition and safeguarding, not a religiously neutral scholarly ethnography. Use it for this practice's inscription status, inscription year and the Committee's own stated description of it; a claim about its deeper history or meaning needs a source produced outside UNESCO.FactsCross-Tradition ConnectionsClaims Backed By This Source (23 claims)Comments (0)Reader Challenges (0 open reader challenges)FactsCitationAuthorWell-attestedUNESCO Intergovernmental Committee for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural HeritagePublisherWell-attestedUNESCOPublication YearWell-attested2008URLWell-attestedhttps://ich.unesco.org/en/RL/ramlila-the-traditional-performance-of-the-ramayana-00110Source TypeWell-attestedreferenceAssessmentReliability TierWell-attested1This is not a separate work: it is UNESCO's own inscription record for Ramlila, one entry in an authoritative international institutional register, treated at the top tier as that primary record.NotesWell-attestedProclaimed 2005, inscribed on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008, on India's nomination.
