The manuscripts were part of the relics looted to Western countries in the early 20th century. Their publication marks the first time the manuscripts were unveiled to the public. Currently part of the manuscript collection of Lushun Museum in the northeastern Chinese city of Dalian, they were considered the last treasure of ancient Dunhuang and Turpan manuscripts. The manuscripts include Buddhist, Confucian and Taoist classics, as well as official paperwork from various dynasties, said Rong Xinjiang, a professor with Peking University, at a seminar held Sunday.
