# UNESCO Takht-e Soleyman interpretation includes fuel and water of a fire sanctuary

Date: 2003

## The fact

The 2003 UNESCO listing of Takht-e Soleyman presents a fire-and-water landscape. He did not file 2003.

## Context

Split conservation-access and political-use rows. This stores fuel-of-the-shrine as later told.

[Zoroaster](/people/zoroaster) is not the sole author of every later object, law, or museum label that uses the name. Shared work with courts, excavators, printers, spouses, officials, and later states does not erase a documented role, and it does not make an ancient person the signer of a twentieth-century statute.

## Evidence and sources

Official heritage, encyclopedia, or public Avesta pages and an independent publisher independently describe this instrument.

Official or archival record: UNESCO — Takht-e Soleyman (https://whc.unesco.org/en/list/761/; UNESCO World Heritage Centre).

## Significance

A 2003 listing is not a founder’s fuel ledger.

## What is established and what is not

Established as a dated public record of this instrument.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.
Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, and museums are not converted into extra lifetime acts. The welfare reading used in this dossier is worsening. That reading is an impact-path choice, not a property stored on the Fact itself. Confidence is stated on the impact path. A later English edition is not a recovered autograph. If a number is not in the two records named above, it is not supplied here. Later competitions, monuments, translations, UNESCO listings, and museums are not converted into extra lifetime acts.
