On the Development of Nestorianism in Ningxia from the 7th to 14th Centuries

景教传入宁夏,历唐、西夏、元而衰亡于明初,在宁夏形成了丰厚的文化积淀,丰富了宁夏地域文化的内涵,给宁夏地域文化注入了浓厚的域外色彩。本文通过回顾景教在宁夏的传播史,剖析了景教在宁夏的发展轨迹,考证了景教在宁夏的教会组织和信教民族,并对其衰亡的经验教训进行初步总结。

Nestorianism was introduced into Ningxia in the Early Tang period and declined during the early Ming dynasty. During this period, it had produced rich cultural content, which enriched the culture of Ningxia with a strong exotic cultural flavor. This paper reviews the dissemination history of Nestorianism in Ningxia, discusses the Nestorian communities and followers in Ningxia, and finally summarizes how it declined.
