O. FRANKE places *Tzü-ho* S. E. of Kashgar, and, probably, in the valley of Yarkand-
darya. *Chieh-ch'a* he identifies with Skardo, or some place north of it.¹
2. FROM KHOTAN TO TZÜ-HO.
Hitherto the most important contribution to the interpretation of Fa-hien's itinerary
has been given by M. A. STEIN on the basis of the translations and explications of the
brilliant French sinologist EDOUARD CHAVANNES. Stein reminds us of the fact that Fa-hien
and Sung Yün are the earliest Chinese travellers of whose visit to Sarikol we have any
record. In the case of the former, however, our knowledge is exceedingly brief, and
»dependent on a conjectural identification».² However according to HERRMANN Chavannes'
interpretation is impaired by two serious errors. The second error, *viz.*, the location of
the third station *Chieh-ch'a* at *Kashgar* will be dealt with later on. The first error
consists in the fact that Chavannes has removed the first station too far north or to
*Karghalik*. As already the Chinese Commentators have observed, and as especially pointed
out above (p. 19) Tzü-ho was situated 60 km. farther south or at the place Kök-yar of our
days. Therefore we have not to place the section from Yü-t'ien (Khotan) to Tzü-ho (Kök-yar)
along the present line of Khotan-Guma-Karghalik, but to remove it farther south into the
northern ranges of the Ts'ung-ling system, perhaps across the Sanju and Kiliang.³ This is
the same road that in 519 A. D. was travelled by Sung Yün and, in the opposite direction,
in 640 by Hsüan-chuang.
