hand . . .; in popular estimation Eastern Thibet is bounded on the north-west by the
Kangtisee range of mountains, and a greatly elevated tract of country extending
from the base of this range; on the north by Mongolia; on the east by the Sifan
and Sechuen provinces of China, and on the south by the Himalaya, from the point
at which it is pierced by the Burampootur on the east, to the meridian of the Ma-
nasarowur and Rawan Rud Lakes on the west. The general direction of the Kang-
tisee range is north and south, and it is said to connect the Himalaya and Mon-
golia, as by a cross-bar.»
This passage was written some nine years after Hodgson wrote his important
paper; Essays on the Languages etc., where the Nyenchhen-thánglá was mentioned
in a few words. And still Campbell, who was Hodgson's friend did not even mention
it. On the contrary, his experience from inquiries was that the natives did not re-
cognize a continuous chain of mountains north of the Himalaya. That they did not
know the Kwen-lun is quite natural, for only the Chinese call the system by that
name, and then the system is situated far beyond Tibet, ethnologically speaking. It
belongs to a country the Tibetans have never heard of. The statement that Mon-
golia lies »parallel» to Himalaya is incomprehensible. Such assertions only give new
proofs of the great vacuum north of the Tsangpo to the European geographer's mind.
Campbell's description of the »Kangtisee range» is a survival from Humboldt and
others. That anything like it could be written after Moorcroft's and the Stracheys'
journeys is curious. A cross-bar connecting Himalaya and — Mongolia!
Campbell gives a short itinerary of a Route to the Salt Mines in Thibet.
It goes from Digarchi to Punchooling in 3 marches. At Digarchi (Shigatse) the
direction is north-west across the Yaroo, but it is not said that both places are on
the same bank of the river. Then follow Amringjong 4 marches north-west, Nak-
chang 8 marches, Sang-zang Lhoda 6, Sakojong 7, To-then 8 marches, all north-
west, Bomet 3 marches north, Lon-kurqun 10, Tarokchan 2, Borghagege 3 and the
Salt mines one march, all north; being in all 55 marches »for loaded men»,¹ each
about 10 miles. With our present knowledge of the country it is easy to follow
this route: Shigatse, Pindsoling, Ngapringkyim-tso, Sangsang, Saka-dsong, Bupmet (?),
Tarok-tso and Tabie-tsaka. In Campbell's time it was of course impossible to
make out the itinerary. He exaggerates the distance which cannot be more than
400 miles.
Dr Campbell has also written an account of the journey he undertook in
September, October and November 1849 in company with Dr Hooker and he took
part in the climb up the Bhomtso hill. He has nothing of special interest about the
country to the north and modestly says he had little occasion to make personal
observation. He speaks of a »very curious map of the country compiled by
natives who had travelled as Lamas and Merchants over the greater part of it».
