Two records held together: UNESCO's own Multimedia Archives item page for "Sacrificial Rite in the Confucian Temple," an eight minute 2009 documentary, whose own text states "the sacrificial rite in the Confucian Temple is a celebration of the birthday of Confucius, held every 28 September in Qufu, his hometown" and that "the rite embodies and promotes the Confucian philosophy transmitted by verbal communication and practical demonstration," with concept tags naming Confucius and Rites directly; and UNESCO's own Intangible Cultural Heritage listing for the same nomination, confirming its national inscription and its place on the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity.
