            Abstract
            This volume contains sixteen contributions devoted to historical monuments and materials relating to Western Tibet primarily between the late 9th and the 12th century. In one way or another, the thematic focus of all contributions is related to the establishment and spread of monastic Buddhism in the West Tibet kingdom, in particular the foundation of Buddhist monasteries and the role played by the state, the royal lineage and allied aristocratic clans. Studies of the sites of Nyarma and Tabo (both dating from 996), stelae, historiographical texts, including a genealogy of the royal lineage and the biography of one its most prominent representatives (the Royal Lama Yeshe ö, 947-1019), illustrated MSS and a fully decorated cave temple reflect the Buddhist rulers' and their aristocratic allies' vision of the West Tibetan kingdom.
             
            Dieser Band enthält 16 Beiträge zu historischen Monumenten und Materialien, die sich auf Westtibet primär zwischen dem späten 9. und 12. Jahrhundert beziehen. In der einen oder anderen Weise ist der thematische Fokus aller Beiträge auf die Etablierung und Verbreitung des monastischen Buddhismus im westtibetischen Königreich bezogen, insbesondere die Gründung buddhistischer Klöster und die Rolle, die dabei vom Staat, der königlichen Linie und verbündeten adeligen Klans eingenommen wurde. Studien der Stätten Nyarma und Tabo (beide 996 gegründet), von Stelen, historiographischen Texten, inklusive einer Genealogie der königlichen Linie und der Biographie eines ihrer prominentesten Vertreters (des königlichen Lamas Yeshe Ö, 947-1019), von illustrierten Manuskripten und eines voll ausgestatteten Höhlentempels reflektieren die Vision des westtibetischen Königreichs seitens der buddhistischen Herrscher und ihrer aristokratischen Verbündeten.
