Notes
[278] I have presented the name of this
site as Mönra YargenMon ra yar gan (Bellezza, Antiquities of Northern Tibet), a less desirable spelling. YarkéYar rked and markémar rked are common drokpa’brog pa geographical terms
referring to above and below the “waist” (base), respectively, of hills and mountains.
[279] This is the local name
for what was formerly called Oma Doring’O ma rdo ring (named for
the old camp or township) (Bellezza, Antiquities of Northern
Tibet). In the local TöStod dialect, the jampo’jam po (“smooth”) part of the site’s name denotes terrain that is free of
rocks and other obstructions.
[280] Named after A Tak PelmoA stag dpal mo/A Tak LumoA stag klu mo, a prominent goddess in the GesarGe sar epic.
[282] A type of fierce martial spirit.
[283] A type of powerful elemental spirit.
