This article is a preliminary collation and summary for these crucial findings,including the initial establishment,development,evolution,and final abandonment of Mo’er Temple,Mo ’er Temple ’s general layout and its architectural structure,and features of cultural exchange on the Silk Road that Mo’er Temple reflects. These new discoveries prove that Mo’er Temple is solid evidence of the coexistence and spread of multiple religions in Xinjiang in the history. It demonstrates that Chinese civilization is both unified and diverse,inclusive and understanding;and may serve great importance to researches and study on the evolutionary history of religions in Xinjiang.
