The General Conference of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization, meeting at New Delhi, from 5 November to 5 December 1956, at its ninth session, Being of the opinion that the surest guarantee for the preservation of monuments and works of the past rests in the respect and affection felt for them by. the peoples themselves, and persuaded that such feelings may be greatly strengthened by adequate measures inspired by the wish of Member States to develop science and international relations, Convinced that the feelings aroused by the contemplation and study of works of the past do much to foster mutual understanding between nations, and that it is therefore highly desirable to secure international co-operation with regard to them and to further, in every possible way, the fulfillment of their social mission, Considering that, while individual States are more directly concerned with the archaeological discoveries made on their territory, the international community as a whole is nevertheless the richer for such discoveries,
聯(lián)合國教育、科學(xué)及文化組織大會于1956年11月5日至12月5日在新德里舉行其第九屆會議,認為保存過去時代紀念物和作品最可靠的保證在于各民族自己對這些紀念物和作品的尊重與熱愛之情感,相信這種情感可以通過由成員國發(fā)展科學(xué)和國際關(guān)系的愿望所激發(fā)的適當(dāng)措施而得到大大加強,確信對過去時代作品的沉思與研究所激發(fā)的感情對于促進各國之間的相互了解大有作為,因此確保關(guān)于這些作品的國際合作并盡一切方法促進其社會使命的完成,乃至為需要,考慮到雖然各個國家更直接關(guān)心在其領(lǐng)土上所作考古發(fā)現(xiàn),而國際社會作為整體也因這些發(fā)現(xiàn)更為富有。
Having before it proposals concerning international principles applicable to archaeological excavations, which constitute item 9.4.3 on the agenda of the session,Having decided, at its eighth session, that these proposals should be regulated at the international level by way of a recommendation to Member States,
The General Conference recommends that Member States should bring the present Recommendation to the knowledge of authorities and organizations concerned with archaeological excavations and museums. The General Conference recommends that Member States should report to it, on dates and in a manner to be determined by it, on the action which they have taken to give effect to the present Recommendation.
I. Definitions
Archaeological excavations
1. For the purpose of the present Recommendation, by archaeological excavations is meant any research aimed at the discovery of objects of archaeological character, whether such research involves digging of the ground or systematic exploration of its surface or is carried out on the bed or in the sub-soil of inland or territorial waters of a Member State.
Property protected
2. The provisions of the present Recommendation apply to any remains, whose preservation is in the public interest from the point of view of history or art and architecture, each Member State being free to adopt the most appropriate criterion for assessing the public interest of objects found on its territory. In particular, the provisions of the present Recommendation should apply to any monuments and movable or immovable objects of archaeological interest considered in the widest sense.
3. The criterion adopted for assessing the public interest of archaeological remains might vary according to whether it is a question of the preservation of such property, or of the excavator's or finder's obligation to declare his discoveries.
(a) In the former case, the criterion based on preserving all objects originating before a certain date should be abandoned, and replaced by one whereby protection is extended to all objects belonging to a given period or of a minimum age fixed by law.
(b) In the latter case, each Member State should adopt far wider criteria, compelling the excavator or finder to declare any object, of archaeological character, whether -movable or immovable, which he may discover.

II. General principles
Protection of the archaeological heritage
4. Each Member State should ensure the protection of its archaeological heritage, taking fully into account problems arising in connexion with excavations, and in conformity with the provisions of the present Recommendation.
5. Each Member State should in particular:
(a) Make archaeological explorations and excavations subject to prior authorization by the competent authority;
(b) Oblige any person finding archaeological remains to declare them at the earliest possible date to the competent authority;
(c) Impose penalties for the infringement of these regulations;
(d) Make undeclared objects subject to confiscation;
(e) Define the legal status of the archaeological sub-soil and, where State ownership of the said sub-soil is recognized, specifically mention the fact in its legislation;
(f) Consider classifying as historical monuments the essential elements of its archaeological heritage.
Protecting body: archaeological excavations
6. Although differences of tradition and unequal financial resources make it impossible for all Member States to adopt a uniform system of organization in the administrative services responsible for excavations, certain common principles should nevertheless apply to all national archaeological services
(a) The archaeological service should, so far as possible, be a central State administration-or at any rate an organization provided by law with the necessary means for carrying out any emergency measures that may be required. In addition to the general administration of archaeological work, this service should co-operate with research institutes and universities in the technical training of excavators. This body should also set up a central documentation, including maps, of its movable and immovable monuments and additional documentation for every important museum or ceramic or iconographic collection, etc.
(b) Steps should be taken to ensure in particular the regular provision of funds:
(i) to administer the services in a satisfactory manner;
(ii) to carry out a programme of work proportionate to the archaeological resources of the country, including scientific publications ;
(iii) to exercise control over accidental discoveries;
(iv) to provide for the upkeep of excavation sites and monuments.
7. Careful supervision should be exercised by each Member State over the restoration of archaeological remains and objects discovered.
8. Prior approval should be obtained from the competent authority for the removal of any monuments, which ought to be preserved in situ.
9. Each Member State should consider maintaining untouched, partially or totally, a certain number of archaeological sites of different periods in order that their excavation may benefit from improved techniques and more advanced archaeological knowledge. On each of the larger sites now being excavated, in so far as the nature of the land permits, well defined `witness' areas might be left unexcavated in several places in order to allow for eventual verification of the stratigraphy and archaeological composition of the site.
Formation of central and regional collections
10. In as much as archaeology is a comparative science, account should be taken, in the setting up and organizing of museums and reserve collections, of the need for facilitating the work of comparison as much as possible. For this purpose, central and regional collections might be formed or, in exceptional cases, local collections on particularly important archaeological sites-in preference to small scattered collections, accessible to comparatively few people. These establishments should command, on a permanent basis, the administrative facilities and scientific staff necessary to ensure the preservation of the exhibits.
11. On important archaeological sites, a small exhibit of an educational nature-possibly a museum-should be set up to convey to visitors the interest of the archaeological remains.
Education of the public
12. The competent authority should initiate educational measures in order to arouse and develop respect and affection for the remains of the past by the teaching of history, the participation of students in certain excavations, the publication in the press of archaeological information supplied by recognized specialists, the organization of guided tours, exhibitions and lectures dealing with methods of excavation and results achieved, the clear display of archaeological sites explored and monuments discovered, and the publication of cheap and simply written monographs and guides. In order to encourage the public to visit these sites, Member States should make all necessary arrangements to facilitate access to them.

6.盡管傳統(tǒng)差異和不平等的資金財力使各成員國不可能在負責(zé)發(fā)掘的管理機構(gòu)中采取統(tǒng)一的組織體制,不過某些共同原則仍應(yīng)適用于所有國家考古機構(gòu):
(A)考古機構(gòu)應(yīng)盡可能是中央國家部門——或者無論如何應(yīng)是由法律賦予為執(zhí)行可能需要的任何緊急措施所必需的手段的組織。除考古工作的一般管理外,該機構(gòu)還應(yīng)該同研究所及大學(xué)在發(fā)掘人員技術(shù)培訓(xùn)方面進行合作。該機構(gòu)還應(yīng)編制可移動或不可移動紀念物的包括地圖在內(nèi)的總文獻目錄,并為各個重要博物館或陶瓷或肖像收藏等,編制附加文獻目錄。
(B)應(yīng)采取步驟以特別保證資金的正常供給,以便:(1)以令人滿意的方式管理這些機構(gòu);(2)執(zhí)行同本國考古資源相稱的工作計劃,包括科學(xué)出版;(3)對偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)實行控制;(4)對發(fā)掘遺址和紀念物予以維修。
9.每一成員國應(yīng)考慮對不同時期的一定數(shù)量考古遺址部分或整體地維持不動,以便可以利用改進的技術(shù)和更先進的考古知識進行發(fā)掘。在每個正在發(fā)掘的較大遺址,只要土地性質(zhì)允許,可以保留幾處明確界定的“見證”區(qū)不進行發(fā)掘,以供最終證實遺址的地層和考古結(jié)構(gòu)。
III. Regulations governing excavations and international collaboration
Authority to excavate granted to foreigners
13. Each Member State on whose territory excavations are to take place should lay down general rules governing the granting of excavation con-cessions, the conditions to be observed by the excavator, in particular as concerns the supervision exercised by the national authorities, the period of the concession, the reasons which may justify its withdrawal, the suspension of work, or its transfer from the authorized excavator to the national archaeological service.
14. The conditions imposed upon a foreign excavator should be those applicable to nationals. Consequently, the deed of concession should omit special stipulations which are not imperative.
International collaboration
15. In the higher interest of archaeology and of international collaboration, Member, States should encourage excavations by a liberal policy. They might allow qualified individuals or learned bodies, irrespective of nationality, to apply on an equal footing for the concession to excavate. Member States should encourage excavations carried out by joint missions of scientists from their own country and of archaeologists representing foreign institutions, or by international missions.
16. When a concession is granted to a foreign mission, the representative of the conceding State-if such be appointed-should, as far as possible, also be an archaeologist capable of helping the mission and collaborating with it.
17. Member States which lack the necessary resources for the organization of archaeological excavations in foreign countries should be accorded facilities for sending archaeologists to sites being worked by other Member States, with the consent of the director of excavations.
18. A Member State whose technical or other resources are insufficient for the scientific carrying out of an excavation should be able to call on the participation of foreign experts or on a foreign mission to undertake it.
Reciprocal guarantees
19. Authority to carry out excavations should be granted only to institutions represented by qualified archaeologists or to persons offering such unimpeachable scientific, moral and financial guarantees as to ensure that any excavations will be completed in accordance with the terms of the deed of concession and within the period laid down.
20. On the other hand, when authority to carry out excavations is granted to foreign archaeologists, it should guarantee them a period of work long enough, and conditions of security sufficient to facilitate their task and protect them from unjustified cancellation of the concession in the event, for instance, of their being obliged, for reasons recognized as valid, to interrupt their work for a given period of time.
Preservation of archaeological remains
21. The deed of concession should define the obligations of the excavator during and on completion of his work. The deed should, in particular, provide for guarding, maintenance and restoration of the site together with the conservation, during and on completion of his work, of objects and monuments uncovered. The deed should moreover indicate what help if any the excavator might expect from the conceding State in the discharge of his obligations should these prove too onerous.
Access to excavation sites
22. Qualified experts of any nationality should be allowed to visit a site before a report of the work is published and with the consent of the director of excavations, even during the work. This privilege should in no case jeopardize the excavator's scientific rights in his finds.
Assignment of finds
23. (a) Each Member State should clearly define the principles which hold good on its territory in regard to the disposal of finds from excavations.
(b) Finds should be used, in the first place, for building up, in the museums of the country in which excavations are carried out, complete collections fully representative of that country's civilization, history, art and architecture.
(c) With the main object of promoting archaeological studies through the distribution of original material, the conceding authority, after scientific publication, might consider allocating to the approved excavator a number of finds from his excavation, consisting of duplicates or, in a more general sense, of objects or groups of objects which can be released in view of their similarity to other objects from the same excavation. The return to the excavator' of objects resulting from excavations should always be subject to the condition that they be allocated within a specified period of time to scientific centers open to the public, with the proviso that if these conditions are not put into effect, or cease to be carried out, the released objects will be returned to the conceding authority.
(d) Temporary export of finds, excluding objects which are exceptionally fragile or of national importance, should be authorized on requests emanating from a scientific institution of public or private character if the study of these finds in the conceding State is not possible because of lack of bibliographical or scientific facilities, or is impeded by difficulties of access.
(e) Each Member State should consider ceding to, exchanging with, or depositing in foreign museums objects, which are not required in the national collections.
Scientific rights; rights and obligations of the excavator
24. (a) The conceding State should guarantee to the excavator scientific rights in his finds for a reasonable period.
(b) The conceding State should require the excavator to publish the results of his work within the period stipulated in the deed, or, failing such stipulations, within a reasonable period. This period should not exceed two years for the preliminary report. For a period of five years following the discovery, the competent archaeological authorities should undertake not to release the complete collection of finds, nor the relative scientific documentation, for detailed study, without the written authority of the excavator. Subject to the same conditions, these authorities should also prevent photographic or other reproduction of archaeological material still unpublished. In order to allow, should it be so desired, for simultaneous publication of the preliminary report in both countries, the excavator should, on demand, submit a copy of his text to these authorities.
(c) Scientific publications dealing with archaeological research and issued in a language which is not widely used should include a summary and, if possible, a list of contents and captions of illustrations translated into some more widely known language.
Documentation on excavations
25. Subject to the provisions set out in paragraph 24, the national archaeological services should, as far as possible, make their documentation and reserve collections of archaeological material readily available for inspection and study to excavators and qualified experts, especially those who have been granted a concession for a particular site or who wish to obtain one.
Regional meetings and scientific discussions
26. In order to facilitate the study of problems of common interest, Member States might, from time to time, convene regional meetings attended by representatives of the archaeological services of interested States. Similarly, each Member State might encourage excavators working on its soil to meet for scientific discussions.
Authority to excavate granted to foreigners
13. Each Member State on whose territory excavations are to take place should lay down general rules governing the granting of excavation con-cessions, the conditions to be observed by the excavator, in particular as concerns the supervision exercised by the national authorities, the period of the concession, the reasons which may justify its withdrawal, the suspension of work, or its transfer from the authorized excavator to the national archaeological service.

IV. Trade in antiquities
27. In the higher interests of the common archaeological heritage, each Member State should consider the adoption of regulations to govern the trade in antiquities so as to ensure that this trade does not encourage smuggling of archaeological material or affect adversely the protection of sites and the collecting of material for public exhibit.
28. Foreign museums should, in order to fulfill their scientific and educational aims, be able to acquire objects which have been released from any restrictions due to the laws in force in the country of origin.

V. Repression of clandestine excavations and of the illicit export of archaeological finds
Protection of archaeological sites against clandestine excavations and damage
29. Each Member State should take all necessary measures to prevent clandestine excavations and damage to monuments defined in paragraphs 2 and 3 above, and also to prevent the export of objects thus obtained.
International co-operation in repressive measures
30. All necessary measures should be taken in order that museums to which archaeological objects are offered ascertain that there is no reason to believe that these objects have been procured by clandestine excavation, theft or any other method regarded as illicit by the competent authorities of the country of origin. Any suspicious offer and all details appertaining thereto should be brought to the attention of the services concerned. When archaeological objects have been acquired by museums, adequate details allowing them to be identified and indicating the manner of their acquisition should be published as soon as possible.
Return of objects to their country of origin
