Qinshihuang Kunlun magic herbs inscription latest. Turns out this so-called "uninhabited zone" 無人區 isn't quite that uninhabited after all. A local Tibetan guy Dorje Namgyal [sp?] (pic L) used to herd his flock of 3000 sheep there and says he saw the inscription in 1986.

When Gallica is loading the manuscript image, sometimes it feels that there is a design to it, as if they were trying to make it aesthetic. Incidentally, the loading never finished, it just hung in this way. This is the 大般涅槃經 (Great Nirvāṇasutra) from Dunhuang.

Next Monday at Academia Sinica, an IHP-EFEO talk (in Chinese) on how 9 Dunhuang geographical documents can help us understand knowledge production and practices in Central Asia before the age of print. All welcome

小野響『五胡十六国時代ー王朝の乱立と権力闘争』(ハヤカワ新書)拝受&読了。後趙・前秦・後燕など華北に割拠した王朝を軸に、最新研究に基づき、五胡十六国の興亡をたどる。激動すぎる時代と圧巻の情報量に圧倒される。これは凄い!五胡十六国時代に比べれば、南北朝時代なんてかわいいもんですよ。

盧人是中國西南地區的一個鮮爲人知的族群,這篇論文基於田野調查收集到的50至80年代對盧語最後的使用者的6份調查材料。論文揭示如今被識別為“滿族”的盧人曾使用兩種語言:一種與漢藏語系漢語族的龍家語、蔡家語相關;另一種可能是一個與周邊語言無明確關係的孤立語

Excited that the first study on the #languages of the Luren in Southwest China has been published in "Cahiers de Linguistique Asie Orientale". We show that the Luren (now classified as #Manchu) formerly spoke two different languages, one #Sinitic and the other an isolate. (1/5)
