Details In the 21st century, uninvestigated Dunhuang Manuscripts in China,Taiwan and Japan were published as photo books. That helps me to research not only uninvestigated but also investigated manuscripts. Especially, being able to trace the provenance of the Dunhuang manuscripts since their discovery in 1900 is a crucial factor in determining legitimacy. Due to this new information, this new study analyzes former owners focusing on the seals of Tonko Hikyu collection which belongs to the Kyo-U Library and Daitokyu Memorial Library's collections held at the Gotoh Museum.
