From the Collection of Cultural Relics in the Liaoshangjing Museum in Bairin Left Banner:A Perspective on the Multifaceted Unity of the Chinese Nation
The Xilamulun River and the Laoha River basins,the cradle of Khitan culture,lie at the junc-ture of the nomadic cultures of the grasslands and the agrarian cultures of the Central Plains.The transi-tion of the Khitan people from nomadic life to settlement,followed by their engagement in large-scale ur-ban construction activities,was marked by the constant collision and exchange between diverse ethnic cul-tures.The city of Linhuangfu in Liaoshangjing,the first large city to emerge from the grasslands,and the current Liaoshangjing Museum,the only museum in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region dedicated to exhibiting the imperial city of the Liao Dynasty,stand as testaments to this historical evolution.Among the museum's collection,the murals and epitaphs are of particular distinction.The drip pot mural from a Liao tomb in the museum's collection is a representative work of Liao Dynasty murals.Additionally,among the more than twenty epitaphs in the collection,the Han family epitaphs rank as one of the museum's premi-um collections.These cultural relics in the Liaoshangjing Museum in Bairin Left Banner are a reflection of the multifaceted unity of the Chinese nation.
