陕西榆林市藏传佛教石窟及摩崖石刻调查

Investigation of Tibetan Buddhist Cliff Statues and Grottoes in Yulin, Shaanxi

2015年1月榆林市文物保护研究所等单位在神木、府谷二县进行藏传佛教石窟专项调研。结果显示目前神府两县尚存四处藏传佛教石窟群,虽损毁严重,但留存的种类较丰富。经分析研究,这些石窟群年代范围应为清代,为认识陕北地区宗教信仰的多样化提供了新资料。

In January 2015, the Yulin Municipal Institute of Cultural Relics Protection conducted a special survey to investigate Tibetan Buddhist Grottoes in Shenmu and Fugu County. The survey shows that four clusters of grottoes still preserved in these two counties. Although most grottoes are in poor preservation condition, a wide variety of materials are represented in these cases. Also, the analysis of these caves shows that they should be dated to the Qing Dynasty. The archaeological discoveries provide lots of new materials for understanding the religious diversity in northern Shaanxi.
