The Tonyukuk inscription, also known as the Bain Tsokto monument, was discovered by Elizaveta Klementz not far from the city of Urga (modern Ulaanbaatar) in 1897. The text was published two years later by a prominent Russian researcher Wilhelm Radloff. At the same time 17 photographs of estampages were included in the 4th volume of the “Atlas der Alterthümer der Mongolei”. While these photo copies are still frequently mentioned in the multiple publications concerning the Tonyukuk inscription, only a few specialists are aware that the originals are kept in the Collection of Central Asia and Siberia of the IOM, RAS. Moreover 81 estampages were identified as copies of the Tonyukuk inscription during the full-scale inventory of the Collection that took place in 2021. Thanks to recent publications by V. Tishin, it became obvious that eight similar copies of the monument are preserved in the collection of the Academician Obruchev Museum of Local Lore (Kyakhta). This discovery allowed to s...

the paper presents eleven fragments of Śatasāhasrikā Prajāpāramitā identified during analysis of Khara-khoto collection of Tibetan texts kept in the IOM, RAS. In 2019 as an intermediate result of a project Compilation of the Catalogue of the Tibetan texts from Khara-Khoto preserved at the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts, RAS being done by researchers of the institute thirty-three fragments that had been added to Khara-khoto collection by mistake, were transferred to a separate collection of Tibetan texts from Dunhuang. Although the edited fragments of Śatasāhasrikā Prajāpāramitā cannot be considered to be unique they are worth studying in terms of codicology.

The article presents a description and textological analysis of a single manuscript folio of the Mongolian Kanjur preserved in the Berlin State Library. The folio is written in gold on a black and blue background and reveals a striking similarity to the Golden Kanjur in the library of the Academy of Social Sciences of Inner Mongolia and the “golden” Kanjur fragments kept in manuscript collections around the world. It contains a fragment of the Mongolian translation of the Bhadrakalpika-sūtra that differs from the subsequent copies of the Ligdan’s Kanjur.

The first expeditions to Eastern Turkestan that discovered Old Uyghur manuscripts and block prints were from Russia. A number of the Old Uyghur fragments were found already in the course of the Turfan expedition in 18891890. These fragments, along with the ones in other languages and scripts, were subsequently acquired by the Russian officials N. Petrovsky and N.Krotkov and the expeditions headed by S. Oldenburg (19091910; 19141915) and S. Malov (19091911; 19131914). They formed the so-called Serindia (formerly known as Central Asian) collection kept nowadays at the IOM, RAS. The major part of the Serindia collection consists of the Old Uyghur fragments. Obtained by the expeditions to Eastern Turkestan, according to the customary tradition they were transferred to the Asiatic Museum. This paper presents the results of our study of the provenance, aquisition and processing history of the Old Uyghur fragments.

Due to the publication of N. Pchelin and S.-C. Rashmann Turfan manuscripts in the State Hermitage a rediscovery was published (2016), it became obvious that some some fragments of manuscripts and blockprints in different languages originally discovered during the four German Turfan expeditions (19021914) and later housed in the Museum fr Vlkerkunde (Berlin) for exhibition reasons, are preserved nowadays in the depot of the State Hermitage Museum. The present article deals with two Old Uyghur fragments of Sitātapatrā dhāraṇī blockprinted during the Yuan era. This paper presents codicological description of the fragments, and transcription, transliteration, translation and facsimiles of the preserved parts of text

Book fragments discovered in the Oirat monastery Ablaikit happened to be one of the first Tibetan and Mongolian texts brought to
Europe. The bulk of book fragments of the once rich Ablaikit monastery library were brought to St. Petersburg by the participants of the
Second Kamchatka Expedition (1733–1743) in 1734. The others are
preserved nowadays in various European depositories. The paper
deals with four Mongolian manuscript folios stored in the National
Library of France under call number Tibétain 464. The paper presents description, identification and transcription of the preserved
parts of texts, along with some brief data concerning their acquisition.

books and manuscript fragments in various languages and scripts, along with photos taken during multiple
expeditions of the Russian travellers to Asian countries. The Old Uyghur part of the collection is represented by

НЕКОТОРЫЕ ОСОБЕННОСТИ МОНГОЛЬСКОГО ПЕРЕВОДА «ГУРБУМА» МИЛАРЭПЫ Санкт-Петербургский государственный университет, Российская Федерация, 199034, Санкт-Петербург, Университетская наб., 7/9 По мнению большинства исследователей, в Монголии сложились два типа переводов-дословный (близкий к тибетскому оригиналу) и смысловой, стремящийся к сохранению строя монгольского языка. Первый доминировал в количественном отношении, второго придержи-вались лишь некоторые монгольские переводчики, в том числе и известный переводчик буд-дийских текстов Ширегету Гуши Цорджи. Статья посвящена рассмотрению проблем перевода, связанных с передачей элементов национальной культуры и культурного опыта, отраженных в художественном тексте. Целью исследования является выявление некоторых национально-культурных особенностей мон-гольского перевода «Гурбума» Миларэпы, осуществленного в начале XVII в. Ширегету Гуши Цорджи.

Fragments of Tibetan manuscripts and block prints from Khara-Khoto that were transferred to the Asiatic Museum after the P.K. Kozlovs Mongolia and Sichuan Expedition, have been insufficiently studied. As the result of the cataloguing project initiated by the researchers of the IOM, RAS in 2018, an unknown Tibetan block print was discovered. The preserved fragment includes two texts dedicated to Buddhist Deity Majuśrī. This paper presents the brief archaeographic description of the block print, transliteration and translation of the preserved parts of texts.

Sitātapatrā, referred to as White Umbrella One Goddess who averts evil influences and protects from all kind of disasters and malignant beings with her dhāraṇī. Multiple manuscripts and blockprints dedicated to this goddess, in Old Uyghur and other languages of Central Asia are stored in different world collections. This paper deals with the Old Uyghur fragments of the Sitātapatrā dhāraṇī preserved in the Serindia Collection of the Institute of Oriental Manuscripts of the Russian Academy of Sciences (IOM, RAS). These fragments refer to the same blockprint edition and this study involves the transliteration, transcription and translation of these fragments within the scope of semantic sequence.
