A few months ago, fragments of a “ninth-century Khotanese MS” were posted on an antiques trading bulletin board in China without further information or comment. The images are of high enough quality to study; they are reproduced (without the necessary flipping, in one case) below.
I.S., how on EARTH did you find this in the first place?!
It’s just a matter of knowing what to look for, and where to look.
Indeed. Btw, a further photograph of these MS is available here: http://bbs.sssc.cn/viewthread.php?tid=899087&extra=&page=2
