西藏纳木错湖滨三处岩画榜题的释读与研究

An Initial Examination of Three Rock Paintings at Namtso Lake Inscription Sites in the Tibet Autonomous Region

2021年西藏那曲市和拉萨市联合组织的“纳木错环湖科考”先后在纳木错湖东南岸扎西岛和西岸其多山,发现三处年代约为9至12世纪的洞穴岩画并保留着榜题。其中一部分榜题内容与附带画面高度吻合,与吐蕃时期的苯教有着千丝万缕联系。另一部分榜题内容与洞穴动物、祭祀画面并无直接关联,但其共存关系为羌塘先民利用洞穴,外界贸易文化交流等提供重要线索。

Three cave paintings,which date from about the ninth to the twelfth century and still hold the title of the list,were discovered in the hilly east-southern site of Tashi Island and Qiuo mountain on the western bank of Namtso Lake in 2021 by“the Namtso Lake Research Expedition,”which was jointly organized by the cities of Nagqu and Lhasa.A few of the titles are closely linked to Bon Buddhism during the Tubo period and are extremely consistent with the illustrations that are associated.The remaining portion of the list has nothing to do with animals found in caves or images used as sacrifices,but their coexistence ffers crucial hints about how the Qiangtang ancestors used caverns for trade and cultural exchange with the outside world.
