Syria 's cultural heritage has suffered extensive damage during years of conflict, experts say.

The extent of the conflict has limited any full accounting of Syrian cultural heritage losses, says Lucas Lixinski .

Looting of antiquities from Syrian museums, for example, has not been "comprehensively documented," says Sherine Al Shallah .

Syrian civil society must decide on the restoration process in line with its unique identity, she says.

UNESCO will need financial assistance to ensure further documentation, preservation and reconstruction.

Its preservation would serve "as a record of the experiences of political prisoners from Syria , Lebanon and other parts under a brutal regime that restricted fundamental rights to freedom of expression and association, and freedom from torture and inhumane treatment," she added.
