OverviewIn the series of the regional books on the historical sites of Ladakh, the fourth volume Historical Sites of Nubra is an effort to identify and comprehensively document the historical sites of Nubra, the northernmost region of Ladakh and of the country as a whole. It was noticed in the 19th century by the early explorers for its prime role in the trade between the subcontinent and the oases along the Silk Routes of the Tarim Basin (Khotan, Yarkand, etc). This survey of the historical sites of Nubra will undoubtedly be an important resource to historians, architects, researchers, scholars, policy makers, etc. and become an important tool in preserving the unique cultural heritage of Ladakh. The present survey of Nubra brought to light nearly two hundred sixty seven historical sites covering monasteries, forts, chortens (stupas), petroglyphs, Buddhist carvings, temples, caves, etc. The site survey and documentation was carried out by Dr Quentin Devers, a researcher at the French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS) within the Research Centre for East Asian Civilizations (CRCAO), Paris.
