As is well known, it is the region of the present Khotan in Chinese Turkestan where so much jade has been collected from ancient times and brought to China. And the statement of Kuan-tzu concerning Yü-shih/chih is taken as meaning the occupation of the Khotan region by the Yueh-shih/chih tribe or as the trading of jade which the Yueh-shih/chih collected and brought to China.The author of the present article tries to establish that the name Yü-shih/chih itself designates Khotan and that the statement in Kuan-tzu intends to say that the jade was collected in the Khotan region. It is for the following three reasons: (1) the Sections on Ch’ing Chung in Kuan-tzu are considered to have been compiled in or sometime after the reign of emperor Wu 武 of the Former Han Dynasty, as has been clearly pointed out by Professor Ma Fe-po 馬非百, when the name of Khotan was known by the Chinese for the first time as the result of the first mission of Chang Ch’ien 張鶱 to Central Asia; (2) the name of Khotan was recorded by Ssu-ma Ch’ien 司馬遷 in the Shih-chi 史記, Bk. 123, as Yu-t’ien 于○ which later corrupted into Yu-chih 于寘 is shown by almost all current texts of Shih-chi; (3) the compiler of the Sections on Ch’ing Ch’ung of Kuan-tzu who saw the corrupted form Yü-chih, changed it into Yü-shih/chih in reference to the name Yü 禺 which is recorded as a mysterious place or tribe in Mu-t’ien-tzu chuan 穆天子傳 and Shan-hai-ching 山海經.○は寘のうかんむりと眞の間に儿}, pages = {109--132}, title = {禺氏邊山の玉}, volume = {66}, year = {1985}, yomi = {エノキ, カズオ} }
