Jokhang and early Lhasa religious and diplomatic contexts
Jokhang (Jo khang)
A temple, its changing fabric, and a nearby treaty inscription reveal different forms of royal, religious, and diplomatic evidence. Lhasa was connected to artisans and institutions beyond its valley.
Paisajes de tierras altas, comunidades e instituciones cambiantes
Mesetas, valles y paisajes regionales conectados
Lhasa's valley connected diplomatic and artistic networks. The temple point is not a territorial or religious boundary.
Organización política y escala comunitaria
Royal patronage, religious institutions, artisans, and later regional rulers shaped the site. Their roles changed rather than forming an unbroken modern state.
Transformación posterior, patrimonio vivo y recepción moderna
The shrine remains living religious heritage. Its seventh-century traditions, medieval expansions, and later conservation must be kept chronologically distinct.
Accounts differ over founders and participants.
The academic edition separates composition from erection.
A religious foundation date does not date every surviving wall.
