The Buddhist archaeology involved in the archaeology of Tibetan Buddhist temples has never been done before. From the mid-7th century to the 1950s, Tibet was in a state of social integration of politics and religion for a long time. The politics, economy, culture and art of this period were all reflected in the remains of Buddhist temples. Therefore, the significance and value of the study of Tibetan Buddhist temples is not limited to the field of temple architecture itself, but also involves many aspects of Tibetan history.

For example, through the analysis of the second-phase architectural remains of Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, I found the typical fighting arch style of China in the 1 1 century, and thought that there might be activities of mainland craftsmen on the snowy plateau at that time, which was not found in any written history books.
