    Extractions: TIBETAN HISTORY Tibetan history can be traced thousands of years back. However, the written history only dates back to the 7th century when Songtsan Gampo, the 33rd Tibetan king, sent his minister Sambhota to India to study Sanskrit who on his return invented the present Tibetan script based on Sanskrit. Tibet's history can be diveded into four period The Tsanpo's Period This period starts from Nyatri Tsanpo, the first of the Tsanpos, in 127 B.C(historians differ in view of the date, but this date is taken from the White Annales, a reliabl book on Tibetan history) and ends in 842 A.D. at the death of Lang Dharma, the last of the Tsanpos, who was assassinated by a buddhist monk owing to Lang Dharma's ruthless persecution of Buddhism. During this period some 42 Tsanpos had ruled over Tibet among which Songtsan Gampo's rule was considered as the zenith. Songtsan Gampo was an outstandingruler, he unified Tibet, changed his capital to Lhasa, sent Sambhota to India to study Sanskrit and promulaged a script for the Tibetan on the latter's arrival to Tibet, married Princess Wencheng of the Tang Court and Princess Bhrikuti Debi of Nepal, built the Potala and the temple and the temple of Jokhang The period of Decentrailzation This period began in 842 A.D. the year of Lang Dharma's assassination, and ended in about 1260 A.D, when Pagpa, the Abbot of Sakya monastery, became a vassal of Kublai Khan, the first Emperor of the Yuan Dynasty. During this period a little is known in history except that Tibet became decentralized into a number of petty principalities.

They contain e-texts, outlines, and summaries of Tibetan historical works. The coordinators welcome all input, collaboration, comment, and criticism regarding this site. All submissions will be clearly credited to their creators. The Collections currently contain materials on Tibetan history. The Library expects to expand these resources to encompass historical traditions of the entire Himalayan region. Current Status : While we have abundant textual resources for the study of Tibetan history, these resources have yet to be analyzed and presented in a comprehensive and methodologically grounded manner. To this end the History Collections are currently focused on four primary goals: To make Tibetan historical literature more accessible to scholars, religious participants, and other interested parties at several levels: The Tibetan History Collection will contain multi-lingual (primarily Tibetan and English) summaries, topical outlines, analytical surveys, digital texts, and downloadable and printable images of major Tibetan historical works. To provide historical layers to other collections in the THDL: As digital texts, topical outlines, summaries, and analytical surveys of Tibetan historical works are added these will be linked to other subject collections and to area studies, such that from any thematic or geographic page on the THDL site the user can access both summarized historical data and Tibetan historiography on the subject.

    Extractions: THE ALLIED COMMITTEE OF THE PEOPLES OF EASTERN TURKESTAN, INNER MONGOLIA, MANCHURIA AND TIBET Common Voice: Volume 2 1992 The Origins of Relations Between Tibet and Other Countries in Central Asia P. T. Takla Before the beginning of the Christian era, some of the Tibetan tribes migrated to neighbouring states, or, may be, they had immigrated to Tibet from the outflanking regions. According to the Chinese annals, f Han Hrui , the state of Tokharai (the Indo-Scythians) stretched from north of the Tunhuang Caves to the Chi-ling Mountains north of Lake Koko Nor. Hiung-Nu, a tribal king, in a battle with the tribes of Tokharai, killed the Tokharain king and used his skull as a bowl for drinking chang. Led by the queen of the dead king, the remnants of the court and many followers fled to the west in the region of Amu Daria river and settled there. The same annals state that others of the tribe fled across the mountains in the south and settled in the area of the Jangrig people (a Tibetan people who once formed the kingdom of Nanchao, presently in Yunnan province). This happened around 200-300 B.C. According to Wu Hriu , the facial features of the people of Khotan were dissimilar to those of the rest of the Horpa nomads of Drugu (Uighurs belonging to the Turkic people) and similar, to an extent, to the Chinese. Khotan in the north-west was called Li-yul by the ancient Tibetans. Since Khotan was territorially contiguous with Tibet, there are reasons to believe that the inhabitants of Khotan had originated from Tibet. In those days, the Tibetans used to graze their herds in the summer in Tibet and in the winter in the warmer climes of Khotan. In ancient times all the tribes of Central Asia were nomads, who roamed across the grasslands. This was also done by the Tibetans.

    Extractions: When trying to justify a cause, there is a tendency to interpret historical events in a way that attempts to change reality. To do this, some events will be exaggerated, leaving out certain information, or just ignored altogether. The government of China has done this when they say that Tibet has undeniably been an inseparable part of China for 700 years. Because of how many historical events have to be ignored for this statement to be accepted, it is easily denied. However, when trying to justify the pursuit of a Tibet that is not subjugated to the authority of the Chinese government, there can be the same tendency to interpret history. When trying to claim that Tibet has never been influenced by China, this statement can easily be proven false, which can be enough for some people to believe that Tibet is indeed an inseparable part of China, which is also false. But single truths will often be used to justify dozens of lies, which is why there should be a review of historical events in the region as told from multiple sources, including both websites owned by the Chinese government and websites that support the Free Tibet movement. With greater study, there would no doubt be a lot more historical events found that could be considered significant, but here are some of the biggest ones. The conclusions to be drawn should not be dictated by the following accounts of history. Everyone should be free to make their own search for truth, and decide for themselves.

My father was steeped in the Tibetan language, astronomy and astrology, exerting deep influence on my future. Unfortunately, he died when I was very young. I studied in a private school at eight, and studied Tibetan grammar from the Living Buddha Kezhub at 14. When I was 16 years old, I studied in the Moinzekang (Tibetan Medicine Hospital), where I was taught the Four-Volume Medical Code together with some 60 others. In 1955,1 worked for the Cadre School of the PLA Tibet Military Area. The year of 1956 turned out to be a landmark in my life. I was working as a waiter in the hostel of the Preparatory Committee for the Founding of the Tibet Autonomous Region, and had the opportunity to meet Vice-Premier Chen Yi. Later on, I worked for the Secretariat of the Communist Youth League Work Committee, attended the First Youth Congress of Tibet, visited inland China, and studied in the Beijing School of the Central Committee of the Communist Youth League.
