奚族与回纥的关系管窥

An Exposition on the Relationship between Xi and Uighur

8-9世纪是奚族发展的重要时期。公元744年,回纥建立了强大的汗国。奚族曾羁属于回纥,成为回纥的附属,也曾与唐朝建立联系,在回纥与唐之间依附不定。至公元840年回纥汗国灭亡,奚族与回纥的关系经历了复杂的演变过程。探讨奚族与回纥的关系对了解中国古代民族关系史有所裨益。

Xi,a minority nationality which had lived in Northern China,had got important development in eighth- ninth century. Uighur established a powerful Khanate in 744. After that,Xi lingered between Uighur and Tang Dynasty for a long period. It once belonged to Uighur,and was a tributary state of Tang Dynasty sometimes. Xi- Uighur relations had undergone a complex evolution till the Xi collapsed in 840. It makes sense to explore the relationship between Xi and Uighur for ancient Chinese ethnic relations.
