T. IV.a. View to east-south-east with traces of wall of castrum. [South of Toghrak-bulak.] Photographer: Stein, Marc Aurel
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Landscape Photography
PUBLISHED: 'Innermost Asia', vol. 1, fig. 192: 'View from tower T.IV.a. eastwards across terminal portion of [Dunhuang] Limes.' (I.A. Map 35, C4). 'In Fig. 192 the view from the clay terrace bearing T.IV.a lies to the ESE. In the foreground the straight narrow mound, covered with reeds, marks the line of the decayed Limes wall. The middle distance shows faintly the high banks of earth in which, I believe, we may recognize the decomposed clay ramparts of an ancient Chinese castrum...Far away in the distance the watch-towers T.IV.b and c can just be made out, rising above tongue-like projections of the gravel glacis.' (i, 343, note).
