- Title:
- Lu Tianqi Collection of Yi Manuscripts
- Scope & Content:
- This collection contains digital images of traditional Yi manuscript texts from Guangming, Shuangbai, China. The material is thought to date from roughly the 19th to early 20th centuries. The manuscripts belonged to a Bimo priest named Lu Tianqi. According to Yi tradition, authors and scribes did not record their names on the manuscripts, and so this information is unknown to us. The original manuscripts are written in black and red ink on cotton paper, bound with string and wrapped in hemp cloth or leather. Material is written in the Shuangbai dialect.
