11 The question of textiles as money Coins are man-made objects. Their primary function is as money. Textiles are man-made objects. Money is just one of their functions. A coin out of context is probably still a coin, and represents money. A textile out of context probably does not represent money.
12 Q: How can we know if excavated textiles functioned as money? A: Study the inscriptions on the textiles!
13 Han dynasty silk fragments found by Aurel Stein at Dunhuang 汉代丝绸残品 : 被斯坦因发现, 敦煌 (T.XV.a.i.3)
14 What does the inscription on the fragment say? The inscription describes the original roll of silk: Width: 2 chi 2 cun (approx. 50 cm) Length: 40 chi (approx. 880 cm) Weight: 25 liang Value: 618 qian (coins) Place of origin: Kangfu, Rencheng The Rencheng kingdom: established in AD 84 in modern-day Shandong.
15 A little bit of easy maths Standard rate: 600 coins per roll of silk (PLUS adjustment) In this way, 618 = 600 x 103% (standard rate + 3% adjustment) 40 chi (4 zhang) of silk = 600 coins 1 zhang of silk = 150 coins 25 liang (weight) of silk = 600 coins 1 liang of silk = 24 coins
16 Han dynasty roll of silk found by Aurel Stein at Loulan Loulan (L.A.I.002)
17 This roll of silk has the same dimensions given in the inscription on T.XV.a.i.3 Standard rate of exchange : 600 coins per roll of silk (plus adjustment) Loulan (L.A.I.002) Dunhuang T.XV.a.i.3

30 Aurel Stein and Money on the Silk Road [Yarkand, late September 1900] The last days in Yarkand were busily spent in completing the winter outfit of my men and in sorting and packing my purchases. Accounts too had to be settled, and in this respect I was glad to avail myself of the skilled assistance of Lala Gauri Mall, the Ak-sakal (headman, literally white-beard ) of the Hindu traders. Apart from the question of price no small matter in a country where it would apparently be against all business principles to ask less than double the right amount even from local customers there is enough trouble in the mere payment. The Chinese currency with its Sers or Tels, Miskals and Fens, arranged on a plain decimal system, would be as convenient as can be desired. But its simplicity is of little avail in this outlying province of the empire, which stubbornly clings to its time-honoured reckoning in Tangas and Puls. Each of the little square Chinese coppers known in Turkestan as Dachins is reckoned in Kashgar and Yarkand as equal to two Puls, and twenty-five of them make up a Tanga. The Khotan Tanga is worth twice as much as the Kashgar Tanga. Coins representing this local unit of value there are none; so all sums have to be converted into Miskals, the smallest available silver coins, at the ratio of eight Tangas to five Miskals, unless one is prepared to handle the dirty rolls of Chinese coppers which the local trader keeps strung up like sausages. But the exchange rate between silver and copper is not stable, and the silver Miskal was just then considerably above the value of forty copper pieces which the ration just mentioned would indicate. So after successfully converting Tangas into the legal coin, a varying discount has to be calculated before payment can be effected. It only adds to these monetary complications that prices of articles imported from Russia are reckoned in Soms (Roubles), which in the form of gold pieces of five or ten Roubles widely circulate through the markets of Turkestan, while the heavier Chinese silver Yambus, of horse-shoe shape and varying weight, have a discount of their own. (from Sand-buried ruins of ancient Khotan, 1904, pp )
31 the heavier Chinese silver Yambus, of horse-shoe shape and varying weight, have a discount of their own. Yambu = yuanbao 元寶 (silver ingot)
