辽祖州石室谜题试解

Try to Solve the Riddle of the Stone Chamber of Zuzhou of Liao Dynasty

辽祖州内城两明殿和二仪殿分别供奉有辽太宗耶律德光祖父萨拉和其父耶律阿保机,也不排除供奉太祖以上四代先人。除此,祖州还应有供奉契丹始祖奇首可汗庙。本文对奇首可汗庙建于西拉木伦河与老哈和汇流处的木叶山提出质疑,认为阿保机父祖辈即已确立辽祖陵对面漫其格山为白马山亦即木叶山。排除关于祖州石室系圜土、西楼、太祖耶律阿保机厝葬停尸处的说法,推定祖州石室是契丹迭剌部贵族祭祀始祖奇首可汗的专用庙宇。

The Liangming Hall and Eryi Hall in the inner city of Liao Zuzhou are dedicated to the grandfather of Yelv Deguang and his father Yelv Abaoji.It is not excluded that the four generations of ancestors from Taizu and above are enshrined.In addition,Zuzhou should also have a Khan temple dedicated to the Qishou who is the first ancestor of Khitan.This paper questions that the Qishou Khan Temple was built on Muye Mountain at the confluence of Xilamulun River and Lao-Ha River.It is believed that the father and ancestors of Abaoji have established the Manqige Mountain located at the opposite of the Liao Zuling is the Baima Mountain,which is also called the Muye Mountain.It is presumed that the Stone chamber of Zuzhou is a special temple for the Khitan Diela nobles to worship the first ancestor of Qishou Khan.
