Research Abstract |
This research features a precious group of Chinese cultural legacy, the abundant cliff images remaining in the Sichuan area, aiming to create a record of their present state in preparation for the progressing destruction due to erosion and human cause, and to seek an effective recording method for research and preservation efforts. The researchers worked in collaboration with Sichuan University and the Chengdu-city Research Institute of Archaeology, the partnering research institutions in China, and tested variations of research methods through executing a complete enumeration of the cliff images within the targeted areas and then completing a record of their entire contents. The targeted areas were Pujiang and Qionglai, both located in the western part of the Sichuan Basin. The cliff image sites counted eighteen in Pujiang and five in Qionglai, with a grand total of over six hundred grottoes. The basic recording methods used were photography, measurement and description of the Buddhist statues and their attachments including the grotto structures, survey drawings, and rubbings. As a possible replacement for survey drawings with their inevitable shortcomings, the researchers introduced non-contact 3D laser scanning -a pioneering attempt in the genre of archaeological studies of Chinese grottoes- and verified its advantages and disadvantages. Furthermore, the researchers presented a number of research papers using the resulting data, discussing the significance of the artistic activities within the area from the perspective of Buddhist art history, thus contributing a meaningful prospect for regional studies in the genre of Chinese Buddhist art history.
