Description: ""Sand-Buried Ruins Of Khotan"" is a book written by Mark Aurel Stein, detailing his journey of archaeological and geographical exploration in Chinese Turkistan in 1904. The book provides a personal narrative of Stein's expedition to the region, which was largely unexplored at the time. Stein describes the challenges he faced in navigating the harsh desert terrain and the political obstacles he encountered in gaining access to the ancient ruins of Khotan. The book also includes detailed accounts of the archaeological discoveries Stein made during his expedition, including the uncovering of ancient manuscripts and artifacts from the Silk Road era. ""Sand-Buried Ruins Of Khotan"" is a fascinating account of one man's journey to uncover the secrets of a long-forgotten civilization, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and archaeology of Central Asia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
