THE ANCIENT REMAINS OF KĀSHGAR AND THE OASES OF
YARKAND AND KARGHALIK
Section I.—THE STŪPAS OF KURGHĀN-TIM AND KIZIL-DEBE
None of the early notices about Kāshgar, above reviewed, contains any definite indication as
to the position of its capital. But the oldest Muhammadan description of Kāshgar I can trace—
and one exceptionally trustworthy from the intimate acquaintance of its author, Mirzā Ḥaidar,
with this territory—clearly shows that the position of the city of Kāshgar early in the sixteenth
century was the same as now¹. The absence of any evidence or tradition to the contrary
would in itself suffice to justify this assumption; but fortunately we possess direct proof of the
antiquity of the site in antiquarian remains of undoubtedly pre-Muhammadan origin.
These consist of the large ruined mound of Kurghān-Tim, near the left bank of the Tümen
