  • The Spiti Valley Recovering the Past & Exploring the Present OXFORD
    The Spiti Valley Recovering the Past & Exploring the Present Wolfson College 6 t h -7 t h May, 2016 OXFORD Welcome I am pleased to welcome you to the first International Conference on Spiti, which is being held at the Leonard Wolfson Auditorium on May 6 th and 7 th , 2016. The Spiti Valley is a remote Buddhist enclave in the Indian Himalayas. It is situated on the borders of the Tibetan world with which it shares strong cultural and historical ties. Often under-represented on both domestic and international levels, scholarly research on this subject – all disciplines taken together – has significantly increased over the past decade. The conference aims at bringing together researchers currently engaged in a dialogue with past and present issues pertaining to Spitian culture and society in all its aspects. It is designed to encourage interdisciplinary exchanges in order to explore new avenues and pave the way for future research. There are seven different panels that address the theme of this year’s conference, The Spiti Valley : Recovering the Past and Exploring the Present , from a variety of different disciplinary perspectives including, archaeology, history, linguistics, anthropology, architecture, and art conservation. I look forward to the exchange of ideas and intellectual debates that will develop over these two days. On this year’s edition, we are very pleased to have Professor Deborah Klimburg-Salter from the universities of Vienna and Harvard as our keynote speaker. Professor Klimburg-Salter will give us a keynote lecture entitled Through the black light - new technology opens a window on the 10th century .

RADHIKA GUPTA MAX PLANCK INSTITUTE FOR THE STUDY OF RELIGIOUS & ETHNIC DIVERSITY THE IMPORTANCE OF BEING LADAKHI: AFFECT AND ARTIFICE IN KARGIL Ladakh often tends to be associated predominantly with its Tibetan Buddhist inhabitants in the wider public imagination both in India and abroad. It comes as a surprise to many that half the population of this region is Muslim, the majority belonging to the Twelver Shi‘i sect and living in Kargil district. This article will discuss the importance of being Ladakhi for Kargili Shias through an ethnographic account of a journey I shared with a group of cultural activists from Leh to Kargil.

  • Road Trip to Spiti from Delhi
    JustWravel R O A D T R I P T O S P I T I F R O M D E L H I W W W . J U S T W R A V E L . C O M S P I T I V A L L E Y R O A D T R I P Spiti Valley Spiti Valley is a vast cold desert mountain valley located in the Himalayas in the north- eastern part of the Indian state Himachal Pradesh. The word "Spiti" depicts "The Middle Land", which was a bridge where the two great traditions of India and Tibet diffused in the trans-Himalayan region. There are two routes by which one can reach Spiti, which are from Manali via Rohtang and Kunzum Pass and from Shimla via Hindustan Tibet highway, which is often considered one of the most treacherous road. Spiti Valley is fed by several fast-flowing streams that drain into Spiti river. Being one of the remotest regions of India which remains blocked for most of the year is ideal for Wravelers looking to explore places. It's not all about traveling together, but connecting and traveling together forever. I T I N E R A R Y 9 N / 1 0 D Day 0 DELHI TO NARKANDA You will meet our Trip Lead at ISBT Kashmere Gate by 9 PM.

  • Ginger: a Khotanese Loanword in Modern Purik-Tibetan
    GINGER: A KHOTANESE LOANWORD IN MODERN PURIK-TIBETAN ROLAND BIELMEIER (BERN) In the eighties and nineties of the last century Ronald E. Emmerick and I used to exchange letters and emails from time to time on language contact between Khotanese and Tibetan. It is now some fourteen years since I informed him in 1997 that I had found that the Khotanese word for ‘ginger’ is still in use today in certain varieties of modern Purik-Tibetan. It was his teacher, Harold W. Bailey, who apud ROSS 1952: 15 first pointed out that the Khotanese word ttuṃgara- ‘ginger’ was borrowed into Written Tibetan (WT) as doṅ gra. This is mentioned by Emmerick in his contribution to the Gedenkschrift for Giuseppe Tucci (EMMERICK 1985: 313 [13]), where he added that in chapter 2.17 of Ravigupta’s Siddhasāra Khotanese “ttāṃgare corresponds to Sanskrit nāgara and to Tibetan li doṅ gra. li in the Tibetan li doṅ gra designates Khotan, as pointed out by B. LAUFER, TP, 1916, 455-6, n.1.” For more details, especially further variants of the Khotanese word see BAILEY 1979: 130, where he proposed an Indo-European etymology deriving it from “*tuvam-kara-, with *tuva- ‘swollen, tuber, rhizome’, hence the ginger root, to base tau-: tu- ‘to swell’”. This etymological analysis is unreplaced up to now. Due to the addition of WT li abbreviated for WT li yul ‘Khotan’, there can hardly be any doubt that Tibetan has borrowed from Khotanese and not vice versa. In the BTC (2779a), at present the most comprehensive Tibetan dictionary containing material from Classical as well as from Modern Written Tibetan, li doṅ gra is explained as sga dmar gyi miṅ gźan źig (a different name for red ginger).
