1537 OM - The Ancient City of Galhat (2018)

Ancient City of Qalhat

"The property, which is located on the east coast of the Sultanate of Oman, includes the ancient city of Qalhat, surrounded by inner and outer walls, as well as areas beyond the ramparts where necropolises are located. The city developed as a major port on the east coast of Arabia between the 11th and 15th centuries CE, during the reign of the Hormuz princes. The Ancient City bears unique archaeological testimony to the trade links between the east coast of Arabia, East Africa, India, China and South-East Asia."

卡尔哈特古城

"该遗产地位于阿曼苏丹国东海岸的卡尔哈特，遗址包括拥有内外城墙的卡尔哈特古城，以及城墙外的墓地。在11-15世纪的霍尔木兹王朝统治期间，卡尔哈特发展成为阿拉伯东海岸的主要港口。如今它已成为阿拉伯东海岸与东非、印度、中国和东南亚之间的贸易联系的独特见证。"
