Résumé
The statue in question, which is inscribed with a Sogdian inscription first made known by Yutaka Yoshida in 1990 (see Abs. Ir. 15-16. 162), is evidently the funerary monument of a khaghan of the Western Turks. The author of this important article dates the statue and inscription to 599 A.D., identifying the khaghan, whose name both Sims-Williams and Yoshida (in unpublished studies) have independently read as nry xʾʾn, as the ruler known to the Chinese as Ni-li.
