北石窟寺历代行政归属考略

A Brief Research on the Administrative Ownerships of the North Grottoes Temple in Every Dynasty

北石窟寺,被称作"陇东高原上的一颗明珠",是甘肃第四、庆阳第一大石窟寺。从北魏永平二年(509年)始建至今,先后经历了十多个朝代、1500多年的历史风雨,为后人留下了丰富多彩的研究课题和佛教文化遗产。然而,关于北石窟寺历代行政归属,学术界至今缺少专文考证,笔者依据现有正史和地方史资料,试图对北魏始建到现代的北石窟寺行政归属做一个尝试性的探讨。

The north grottoes temple is called ＂a pearl in Longdong plateau＂.It is the first grottoes temple in Qingyang and the forth one in Gansu province.Since it had been established from the second Yongping year（509） from the North Wei until now,it has undergone more than 10 dynasties and 1500 years.It has left rich research topics and Buddhism culture heritages for the later generations.However,there are still few research papers on the administrative ownership of the north grottoes temple in the academic area.According to the data of the official history and the local history,this paper attempts to inquiry into the administrative ownerships of the north grottoes temple from its founding to modern times.
