摘　　要：1988年～1995年,敦煌研究院考古专业人员对莫高窟北区洞窟进行了长达数年的考古发掘,发现了许多重要遗迹和大批珍贵遗物.遗物中有波斯银币、叙利亚文文献、梵文文献、婆罗迷文字母书写的梵文文献、铜十字架、铜八角器以及具有西亚风格的丝织物等等,它们或直接来自中亚、西亚,或者本来就是西亚文字,或是印度文字,或是受中亚、西亚影响而在中土生产的.这些遗物在敦煌莫高窟北区石窟内的出土决非偶然,因为敦煌是'丝绸之路'重镇,古代曾是'华戎所交一都会'.它们的出土,无疑是中外交往、中外文化交流的历史见证.The team of archaeologists from The Dunhuang Academy had worked on the site of the Northern Quarter Grottoes of Mogao Grottoes at Dunhuang for over 7 years since 1988-1995.
