International Campaign to Save the Monuments of Nubia — library and archival resources

evidence

Egypt and Sudan requested UNESCO assistance in 1959; the Director-General launched an international appeal in 1960; the campaign relocated 22 monuments in Lower Nubia, closed on 10 March 1980, and is credited with prompting the 'World Heritage Trust' concept and ultimately the 1972 Convention. ALSO: Engineers dismantled and re-erected the Abu Simbel temples on higher ground between 1964 and 1968, with work concluding on 22 September 1968, in response to the reservoir created by the Aswan High Dam.

A evidence is not a place. Drawing it on a map would assert something about the world that no stored fact supports.
