古代敦煌文物保护述略

Conservation of Cultural Relics in Ancient Dunhuang

检阅藏经洞敦煌文献与莫高窟、榆林窟等石窟资料,发现其中有大量古代敦煌文物保护的事例,涉及敦煌历代祠庙寺观维修、崖面加固、洞窟维修、清沙扫窟、佛经修补等多个方面。另可探讨与古代敦煌文物保护工作相关的文物保护工作者,保护工作的招待活动、所需材料、工作场所及古代敦煌人的文物保护理念等诸多问题,均对我们今天的文物保护工作有一定的借鉴意义和参考价值。

Many Dunhuang documents from the Library Cave and inscriptions in Dunhuang caves tell about conservation of cultural relics in ancient Dunhuang, including repair of temples, consolidation of the cliff of the Mo- gao Caves, repair of caves, removing sand from caves, repair of sutras, and so forth. On the basis of these materials, other questions also can be discussed, such as conservators, entertainment, materials and places for conservation work, and ancient Dunhuang people＇s ideas about conservation, which might to some extent provide references for today＇s conservation of cultural relics.
