Abstract

• Myanmar is a country in Southeast Asia which has very long cultural history starting from prehistoric to the historic period. The abundance of cultural properties, historic sites and ancient monuments of different periods from prehistoric to 18th century AD are the sources of cultural heritage. The United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) has been exploring the world's heritage in world-wide sites and has started the program "Memory of the World" to carry out assessment of the heritage of the countries and select the heritages of the countries and select the heritages. The four heritages registered in "Memory of the World" are Kuthodaw (Mahalawka Marazein) Pagoda Stone Inscriptions (2013), Myazedi Quadrilingual Stone Inscription (Rajakumar Stone Inscription) (2015), The Gold leaf Letter (Shwe Pe Hlwa) (2015), and King Bayinnaung Bell Inscription (2017). The heritages may be said to provide evidence that the civilization of Pyu, Mon and Myanmar was well established from the Bagan period (11th to 13th century AD) to the Konbaung period (18th to 19th century AD) The purpose of this paper is to provide only the facts from such inscriptions for observers.
