Additional Notes: |
|
Dutch ..... Vanaf het begin van de achtste eeuw n.Chr. werden dergelijke crypten in China algemeen gebruikt om relieken in schrijnen te bewaren. Ze bestonden vaak uit een verzameling afzonderlijke kamers en bevatten soms muurschilderingen die thematisch aansloten op de inhoud. |
