and archaeological communities with the World Heritage Organization in efforts to
obtain World Heritage Status for sites of astronomical significance. Thanks in large
part to these efforts, a number of sites have now been awarded World Heritage
Status on the basis of the significance of their astronomical heritage ranging from
Risco Caldo and the sacred mountains of Gran Canaria to Jodrell Bank Observatory
in the United Kingdom.
