the gaunt, splintered trunks of poplars and various fruit trees, which
could still be seen, half-buried in the sand, near most of the
buildings. On some patches of the original ground left uncovered
between the moving dunes the traces of old irrigation channels,
running between small banks of earth, and evidently constructed
after the fashion that still prevails in the country, were easily
recognisable. But owing to the dunes or else to the effects of
erosion it was impossible to follow them for any distance.
In many places between the scattered ruins, the ground was
thickly strewn with fragments of coarse pottery, small corroded
pieces of metal, and similar débris. These remains, found in
places where at present no traces of old structures survive, probably
mark the positions occupied by less pretentious dwellings which,
like the houses of common Khotan cultivators of the present day,
were built wholly of sun-dried bricks or stamped clay. These were
likely to crumble away far more quickly than buildings with a
timber frame-work covered by hard plaster. The latter mode of
construction also is still used in the towns and villages of Khotan,
but being far more expensive, owing to the distance from which
wood has to be brought, it is restricted to the houses of the
well-to-do and to Mosques, Sarais, and similar buildings. This
observation helps to explain, at least partly, why, at sites like
Dandan-Uiliq which must for various reasons be supposed
to have been occupied by comparatively large settlements, the
extant structural remains are limited in number and so widely
scattered.
But the striking preponderance of religious buildings among the
Dandan-Uiliq remains also suggests the possibility that these local
shrines and their small monastic establishments continued to be
kept up and visited, perhaps as pilgrimage places, for some
time after the rest of the settlement had been abandoned. The
conditions in which Muhammadan Ziarats are now often found
beyond the present cultivated area of oases, would furnish an exact
parallel. In this case the complete decay of the deserted village
structures was likely to have been accelerated by the demands that
