A discipline that studies ancient documents discovered in the Mogao Caves (Thousand Buddha Caves) in Dunhuang, China. It can also include the study of the murals and sculptures in the Thousand Buddha Caves. In 1900 (the 26th year of the Guangxu era), the Taoist priest Wang Yuanlu discovered a great number of ancient manuscripts, documents, and paintings sealed away in Cave 17. Although they attracted little interest at first, in 1907 Stein of the British expedition, and in 1908 Pelliot of France, each purchased large quantities and brought them back to their home countries, which drew the attention of academic circles around the world. In 1910, the Qing government had the remaining Chinese documents transported to Beijing, but subsequent visits by the Otani Expedition, the Russian Oldenburg, and Stein on the third expedition all acquired several more pieces.

中国,敦煌莫高窟(千仏洞)から発見された古文献を研究する学問。千仏洞の壁画,彫塑の研究を含めることもある。1900年(光緒26),道士王円籙が第17窟に封蔵されていたおびただしい古写本,古文書,絵画類を発見した。当初はほとんど関心を呼ばなかったが,07年にイギリス探検隊のスタイン,08年にフランスのペリオが,それぞれ大量に買い取って本国へ持ち帰ったことから,世界の学界の注目を集めるようになった。10年に清国政府は残余の漢文文献を北京に運ばせたが,その後に訪れた大谷探検隊,ロシアのオルデンブルグ,第3次探検のスタインは,さらに若干点を取得した。
