马克萨斯（Marquesas）群岛位于南太平洋。公元1000年前后，人类从海上抵达这些偏远岛屿。该混合系列遗产是这一过程及其于10-19世纪间的繁衍生息的绝佳例证。这里也是生物多样性热点地区，拥有无可替代、保存完好的海洋和陆地生态系统。群岛以陡峭的山脊、雄伟的山峰和高耸的临海峭壁为特色，其自然景观在同纬度热带地区无与伦比。它是重要的特有物种中心，拥有珍稀且多样的植物、丰富的标志性海洋物种，以及南太平洋种类最为繁多的海鸟种群。马克萨斯水域几乎未经人类开发，是世界上所剩不多的海洋荒野区。岛上还保留着大型干砌石结构、石雕、石刻等考古遗迹。

Located in the South Pacific Ocean, this mixed serial property bears an exceptional testimony to the territorial occupation of the Marquesas archipelago by a human civilisation that arrived by sea around the year 1000 CE and developed on these isolated islands between the 10th and the 19th centuries. It is also a hotspot of biodiversity that combines irreplaceable and exceptionally well conserved marine and terrestrial ecosystems. Marked by sharp ridges, impressive peaks and cliffs rising abruptly above the ocean, the landscapes of the archipelago are unparalleled in these tropical latitudes. The archipelago is a major centre of endemism, home to rare and diverse flora, a diversity of emblematic marine species, and one of the most diverse seabird assemblages in the South Pacific. Virtually free from human exploitation, Marquesan waters are among the world’s last marine wilderness areas. The property also includes archaeological sites ranging from monumental dry-stone structures to lithic sculptures and engravings.
