Abstract

ABSTRACT Northern Liang (397–439), known for its patronage of Buddhist translation and statuary, is undoubtedly an exceptional ‘Buddhist kingdom’ in the medieval history. On 9 October 2018, Guangming Ribao 光明日報 (Guangming Daily) published an article claiming that a Buddhist statue recently discovered on Mount Tianti in Wuwei by the founder of Northern Liang (i.e., Juqu Mengxun 沮渠蒙遜 [r. 401–433]). Juqu’s mother Lady Che 車氏 was perhaps from the Western Regions; and his wife Lady Peng 彭氏 was perhaps a Qiang descendant – both were from ethnicities that, during the medieval time, were predominantly Buddhists. Mount Tianti Grotto 天梯山石窟, also known as the ‘stone grotto of Northern Liang,’ is referred to by the modern archaeologist Su Bai 宿白 (1922–2018) as the epitome of the stone grotto of the ‘Northern Liang Model.’ Is it certain that the female Buddhist statue in question is the Queen Dowager? In this author’s opinion, this attribution is an overinterpretation and is also the result of misunderstanding of a set phrase used in the inscriptions of the statues of the Northern Dynasties (386–577).

佛教王国北梁的外交关系:居曲孟训在天坛山为他的母亲建造石佛的时间研究(368-433,r. 401-433)
北梁(397-439)以其对佛教翻译和造像的赞助而闻名,无疑是中世纪历史上一个特殊的“佛教王国”。2018年10月9日,光明日报光明日報(光明日报)发表了一篇文章声称佛教雕像最近发现在武威的创始人Tianti山北梁(也就是说,Juqu Mengxun沮渠蒙遜(r。401 - 433])。居曲的母亲车氏夫人可能是西域人;他的妻子彭彭氏夫人可能是羌族后裔,他们都来自中世纪以佛教徒为主的民族。天坛山石窟,也被称为“北梁石窟”梯,被现代考古学家苏白(1922-2018)称为“北梁模型”石窟的缩影。“你确定这尊女佛像就是太后吗?”在笔者看来,这种归因是一种过度解释,也是对北朝造像铭文中使用的一个固定短语的误解的结果。
