The Place Name “Jiangjun Yu” in the Inscription of the Sino-Tibetan Treaty of 821-822
View through CrossRef
The place name Jiangjun Yu 將軍谷 was transliterated as tsang kun yog in Tibetan. Hence, 谷 must have been pronounced as jwok in Middle Chinese and *luk in Old Chinese. Written as 峪 during the Song, 谷 (with a fanqie reading of 余蜀) is still preserved in place names in present day north China. Pre-Qin 谷 *luk was a cognate of lung-pa in Tibetan, both meaning ‘valley’. Characters such as 俗欲裕, etc, with 谷 as the phonetic indicator, further lend evidence to this ancient pronunciation.
