The Museum of Renmin University of China received more than 500 bet365 mobile betting in 2010 (hereinafter referred to as "National People's Congress bet365 mobile betting"),More than 300 bet365 mobile betting in Chinese、More than 160 Khotanese bet365 mobile betting、13 Sogdian bet365 mobile betting、16 ancient Tibetan bet365 mobile betting and more than 50 Sanskrit fragments。From this,Relevant research is carried out in depth。National Social Science Fund Major Project "Compilation and Research of bet365 mobile betting Unearthed from the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty collected by Renmin University of China" (20&ZD250) Project established in December 2020,The project opening report meeting will be held on April 19, 2021,Project leader Meng Xianshi and sub-project leader Duan Qing and others announced plans。Specially invited expert Hao Chunwen、Wang Su、Zhang Ping、Li Xiao、Xiao Xiaoyong and others discussed the progress of the topic respectively、Provide suggestions for document research and organization。Research team member Rong Xinjiang、Sarge、Shi Rui participated in the discussion。
The members of the research team immediately started working,Mainly by Zhang Xiaohui、Teacher Zhang Meifang is in charge,Restore and organize bet365 mobile betting unearthed from the Western Regions in the Renmin University of China Museum。As of June 2022,The restoration of all Tang Dynasty Western Region bet365 mobile betting has been completed、Measurement、Taking photos、Inlaying and other work,Based on the original bet365 mobile betting,I made a new discovery,A package of document fragments was originally not counted,Passed repair,I found dozens of new bet365 mobile betting。New Chinese characters found on bet365 mobile betting、Khotanese、New text materials such as Brahmi script,Has extremely high academic research value,is an important new discovery and result of this topic。The research is gradually carried out according to the plan,Today,The first batch of results has been released。
Based on the time and place name information mentioned in relevant bet365 mobile betting,It is speculated that this batch of information comes from Jiexie Town in the Tang Dynasty (today’s Dandan Urik and Laodamagou areas in Hotan)。Because bet365 mobile betting have been unearthed here,So the emergence of new information not only brings new document information,More able to promote the progress of original document research。"Journal of Renmin University of China" 2022 Issue 1 with "New Information、New Vision—Research on the Hetian bet365 mobile betting Tibetan at Renmin University of China" is the general title,Published four papers respectively,Demonstrate around the academic value of these precious bet365 mobile betting。
In this batch of bet365 mobile betting,Khotanese bet365 mobile betting are of great significance for understanding the history of the oasis of Khotan。Research on the history of Khotan,Khotanese writing has special characteristics,It is local historical materials produced in the local area in addition to Chinese historical materials。Cross comparison between Khotanese and Chinese bet365 mobile betting、Cooperate in research,Is an important way to study the history and culture of Khotan。Professor Duan Qing’s article "The Academic Value of Khotanese bet365 mobile betting Collection at Renmin University of China",Use relevant materials and research on NPC bet365 mobile betting,actively demonstrates the academic importance of this batch of bet365 mobile betting。For example,Among this batch of bet365 mobile betting is a Sanskrit fragment of "Ten Thousand Psalms of Prajna",Prove that this sutra comes from the Sanskrit world,Some people have always doubted the Sanskrit origin of the sutra,It is even believed that this sutra was written by a Tibetan monk。Now,A Sanskrit fragment,Proved an important academic topic,The original suspicion lacked basis。The reading of the fragments of the Khotanese "Sangha Dha Sutra" is also of great significance。Previously,The usual academic view is that,Buddhist classics were introduced to the Central Plains through the Western Regions (including Khotan),There is always a process from west to east。Then,In the history of the spread of Buddhism,Is there a problem from east to west??Past research often explored this issue from political events,For example, the remnants of Northern Liang retreated from the Hexi Corridor to Gaochang County (now Turpan),Hexi Buddhism has entered the Western Regions on a large scale。This can be seen as the event of Buddhism from east to west。But,From the perspective of Buddhist classics,Can a similar process be discovered??The significance of this document fragment,Here we are。Known through research,The first translation of "Sangha Dha Sutra" is the Chinese translation in Zhongyuan,Then there was a Khotanese translation。This tells us,The relationship between Buddhism in the Western Regions and the Central Plains should be richer and more diverse than previously understood,Maybe from west to east is the mainstream,But there is also a propagation process from east to west。Khotan’s military and political system is unfamiliar to many people today,It was called Jisifu in the Tang Dynasty。On the one hand,The civil affairs of Khotan are managed by the Bisha Governorate,Another title for the Governor is King of Khotan。The king and governor of Khotan,It is only legal after accepting the canonization of the Emperor of Tang Dynasty。On the other hand,The Tang Dynasty had troops stationed in Khotan,This is the Khotan garrison。Then,How do people live in Khotan?Professor Duan Qing vividly demonstrated a Khotanese named Boyanyang through the National People’s Congress bet365 mobile betting,He works under the dual jurisdiction of the Khotan government and the garrison。This is a very historical picture,Provides important evidence for studying the Tang Dynasty’s effective jurisdiction over the Western Regions。
Meng Xianshi’s article “The Collection of Chinese bet365 mobile betting from the Western Regions in the Tang Dynasty at Renmin University of China and Their Academic Value—Focusing on bet365 mobile betting Related to the Guards” points out,Not only does this type of Chinese bet365 mobile betting in the Renmin University’s collection have the largest number among all collectors,There are 20 Chinese bet365 mobile betting with chronological marks,This is also the largest number among collectors everywhere。What deserves special attention is the Wen Secretary with the date of Wu Zetian。Before this,Chinese bet365 mobile betting unearthed in Khotan that the academic community understands,The earliest one belongs to the Kaiyuan period of Xuanzong。Discovery of bet365 mobile betting from Wu Zetian’s era,Proof that after Wu Zetian recovered and resettled the four towns,The corresponding management work has begun。After the Anshi Rebellion,The relationship between the central government and the Western Regions has been seriously affected,Historical records about the Western Regions are also very lacking。Can be found by checking the National People’s Congress bet365 mobile betting,The National People’s Congress bet365 mobile betting are mainly from the two periods after Wu Zetian and after the Anshi Rebellion,The importance of this batch of bet365 mobile betting is self-evident。For example,For the interactive relationship between the Khotan garrison and the Khotan palace、How the garrison can guard the border despite being cut off from the central government,These bet365 mobile betting provide concrete evidence,It is an important material for us to understand the situation in the Western Regions at that time。After the Anshi Rebellion,The army stationed in the Western Region sent the main force to reinforce the central government,Resulting in the decline of the Tang Dynasty’s military power in the Western Regions,The task of protecting the Western Region is more difficult。But,The Tang Dynasty soldiers and civilians in the Western Regions,Working hard under extremely difficult conditions、Strengthen unity,Defending the Western Region for forty years。This is a very rare historical achievement,Worthy to be remembered by future generations。
The Sogdians were famous international merchants in the Middle Ages,It had many influences on the cultural exchanges between China and the West at that time。Although academic circles have previously realized that Sogdians should have visited Khotan in the Tang Dynasty,But until the emergence of NPC bet365 mobile betting,Only in academic circles have they realized the status of Khotan in the Sogdian business world。Bi Bo's article "The Sogdians in Khotan—Focusing on the Sogdian bet365 mobile betting Collection at Renmin University of China" provides important evidence in this regard。In the Sogdian bet365 mobile betting of the National People's Congress,There are very important Sogdian letters,Clear evidence that the Sogdians had a transregional commercial network - one that spanned a vast area from Central Asia to China,From the Sogdian mainland in the west、Seven Rivers Basin,As far east as Chang'an, the capital of Tang Dynasty,Southward into the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau controlled by Tibet,The Mongolian Plateau in the north and the hinterland of the Uighurs,Khotan is one of the important towns in the Sogdian commercial network。For the specific commodities sold by Sogdian merchants and their economic strength,These bet365 mobile betting also reflect this。Although the information is limited,But it strongly confirms the prosperity of the Silk Road。
The Tang Dynasty defenders in Khotan,Mainly from the Central Plains。Duan Zhenzi’s article “Chinese Classics and Calligraphy Posts in Khotan—Focusing on the Hotan bet365 mobile betting Collection of Renmin University of China” discusses an issue of great academic value,That is, what role did the traditional classics of the Central Plains play in the Hotan area in the Tang Dynasty。In the NPC bet365 mobile betting,There are already Confucian classics such as "The Classic of Filial Piety",There are also calligraphy copies such as "Preface to the Lanting Collection" and "Shang Xiang Huang Qi Tie"。After the Anshi Rebellion,Although the Tang Dynasty army under the Kunlun Mountains has lost contact with Chang'an for many years,Uncertain future,But it is possible that soldiers in the Tang Dynasty were still reciting the "Book of Filial Piety"、Teach children to write Wang Xizhi’s calligraphy。Through these scraps of paper,We can feel the strong vitality of Chinese culture that has not been interrupted for thousands of years,The so-called cultural vitality,It’s about ordinary people、The persistence of ordinary soldiers。
As the research further develops,We hope that this batch of materials can reveal more historical details that were previously unknown,Thus further deepening our understanding of the business bet365 mobile betting region at that time、Military、Understanding of language and other aspects of social life,Thus deepening our understanding of the management of the Western Regions and the Silk Road bet365 mobile betting Tang Dynasty。
