Mongolian calligraphy, Armenian fertility rites or French horsemanship? UNESCO envoys will meet this week to decide which of 84 traditions should join UNESCO’s list of protected “intangible heritage”, reports British Columbia with a reference to France-Press.

UN cultural agency suspended the work this month after the U.S. suspended the funding, a circumstance stemming from Palestinian affiliation. The envoys, nevertheless, will meet on Bali Island on November 22-29.

The delegates will determine which of the national traditions merit being included into the list of world important practices and which should therefore be protected for the future generations and join the 215 practices already approved by the UN.

Armenia, for example, will be promoting Vardavar, a festival in honor of pagan goddess of love Astghik. Armenians mark this day by spilling water over each other and passers-by.
