Reconsidering Cultured Intercouse through "Silk Road"

本研究项目旨在重新审视公元10世纪以前的东西方文化交流。研究人员被分为两个领域。第一组在苏联中亚地区进行了研究，通过对一些考古遗迹和文物的调查，考察了前和早期历史时期当地文化与西方文化的关系。第二组在越南南部和老挝南部的一些考古遗址进行了研究，与印度、越南和老挝的学者合作，讨论了东南亚早期印度化的历史过程。这是印度考古学家第一次有机会在越南和老挝进行研究。第一个小组研究了许多考古遗址和博物馆，以研究粟特文化遗迹。他们得出结论，粟特文化是在中亚当地文化的基础上繁荣起来的，同时也受到了伟大的希腊文明的影响。第二组在Karashima教授的领导下参观了一些考古遗迹，并检查了迄今为止未知的属于所谓0c Eo文化的梵文铭文。他们的初步观察结果如下：(1)所谓8世纪以前东南亚的印度化时期，应该分为三个阶段。公元5世纪之前，公元5世纪到8世纪之间，公元9世纪之后。(2) 5世纪以前，东南亚的印度化是非系统化的或“印度化”的。公元5世纪以后，它的发展相当系统和迅速，这与南印度各邦的政治发展有关。(3)东南亚的印度化并非来自印度的某个地区和朝代，而是来自多个地区和朝代，并局限于东南亚。(4)公元6-7世纪以后，东南亚的印度文明在当地的文化基础上得到了发展，特别是在印度教神像的雕刻设计和铭文语言方面。少
