If you say that something is historic, it means it is an important part of history.

If you just say something no longer exists, it makes it sound rather unimportant.

Seems a bit weak and vague to me.
Everything becomes a part of history.

How about
eg have become an important element in Iran's artistic history (or heritage)?
