The UN News Service reported yesterday that experts,
including a team of archaeologists from Durham
University in the United
Kingdom, have begun surveying damaged buildings
and temples which form part of the Kathmandu Valley World Heritage Site.
Given the extent of the damage caused by the powerful
earthquake, which struck Nepal
in April and caused thousands of deaths and widespread displacement, the task
ahead for those involved in protecting and preserving the site is undoubtedly
daunting in the extreme.
