Unfortunately, the name of the minister has not been preserved in full; there are many names, beginning with rgyal, occurring in the Stein relics. GENERAL NOTR: Let me add that in the ancient documents of Sir Aurel Stein's collection, we generally find only the perponal names of the ancient mipisters, preceded by their titles. It is only in rhrer cases that we and the personal names and clan-names coin bined. My explanation of this fact would be that in all those cases, where the personal name alone is given, we may be sure that the document deals with the famous minister, whose personal name and clan-name are both found on the Mu-tsung monument. But there were certain officials, whose personal names were in agreement with those of one or other of the famous ministers, but whose clan-Dame differed from theirs. It is only in such case, as I believe, that the documents of the Stein collection give both names, 80 as, pot to leave any doubt with regard to the identity of the person in question. In conclusion let me my that up to this I have examined more than six hundred of Sir Aarel Stein's relics.. 2x2
