As it is always found in the writings of the world heritage sites of Unesco, architectural value of the monuments under consideration have been given importance which according to scholars belongs to the Middle Ages. And in most cases, church history has been included to gain historic points and to add to outstanding value of the heritage sites.

When word ‘Monastic ‘or ‘monastery’ are used, academic scholarship never links or never refers this word’s treatment as reflected in Buddhist literature of 6^th c B.C. to search for certain historic value of the time under consideration.

According to Unseco, ‘The Monastic Island of Reichenau on Lake Constance in south-west Germany represents a masterpiece of human creative genius as the ensemble of the three churches on the monastic island constitutes an exceptional example of an integrated group of medieval churches retaining elements of Carolingian, Ottonian, and Salian architecture that are relevant to the history of architecture…. The crossing, transepts, and chancel of the Carolingian cruciform basilica of Mittelzell, consecrated in 816, are exceptional both in their size and their excellent state of conservation, and constitute a major example of this particular type of crossing (ausgeschiedene Vierung) in Europe..’.

During the Middle Ages most of the historic monuments preserved in countries all over the world were superbly illustrated by wall paintings and illuminations, and are of great significance to the art history of the world of the 10th and 11th centuries. There is no point to stress only for European monuments as Unesco scholarship is always seen to have laid great stress on them.

Monastic Island of Reichenau or Reich-enau refers to some of the other world heritage sites of Germany as the name ‘-enau’ is as same as Anu from which the name Henry has been derived. Origin of this name can be seen in Greek mythology also; Bhagavata purana has given a list of names of Kings under this dynasty.

Unesco’s scholarship could not understand the meaning of the crossing, transepts, and chancel of the Carolingian cruciform basilica of Mittelzell, which was consecrated in 816; it refers to Hebrew ‘sullum’ or ‘sullam’ which means ‘ladder’, the symbol of salvation. This is very significant as it holds a geographical identity of its own.  It exactly explains the meaning of Salian from which Israelites seek their ancient identity. This Babylonian symbol of salvation was then used by salvation-seekers and they carried this with them wherever they went. It identifies ancient Jerusalem itself. Ancient Israel cannot thus be explored by archaeological excavations in the present Israel.
