The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) and the Ministry of Culture and Information will establish a management board for the My Son World Cultural Heritage Site.
Local and foreign experts working at My Son site reported that their work is running smoothly and they have recently uncovered several more relics.
After excavating around the towers in the G group, experts found that laterite is the material used to build the wall around the towers and even some towers. They also discovered two terra-cotta decoration pieces engraved in Han script, which are different from other tower groups in My Son and shows the participation of Viet people in the construction process of My Son. UNESCO and the Ministry of Culture and Information will establish the My Son World Cultural Heritage Site Management Board and boost the archaeological and restoration activities at the site.
The project to excavate and restore towers in the G group at My Son relic site has been implemented thanks to an agreement signed between the Government, the UNESCO’s Asia-Pacific office and the Italian Government.
