| Research Abstract |
In this research, I developed the method of re-identification of Silk Road ruins recorded on Silk Road expeditions' reports and today's excavation reports through digitization and analysis of Aurel Stein's Maps made around 100 years ago.
In Stein Maps, there are similler errors in each areas because of the technical limit of that times. In this research, Firstly I analyzed the error tendency of two old maps made by Stein. Secondly I performed ruin identification for Turfan and Khotan areas using error information and field survey, and succeeded in linking many of the missing ruins to currently known ruins. Finally, we started to develop the Silk Road ruins database for common use of these re-identification results.
