Yútián 于闐 (Khotan; pronounced with the fanqie tián + xiàn. A foreign country name, situated one thousand two hundred li southwest of Anxi. In this country there is a mountain also named Yudian [Khotan], which produces fine jade. Below the mountain is a river named the Jade River. By the side of the river is a city named Kungang City. In antiquity, people of this city presented jade to the emperor, hence the saying 'jade comes from Kungang'. The Hu barbarians call this country Huodan [Gostana]; it is also named the 'Land of Earth-Breast'. In the territory of this country there are two heavenly deities: one is Heavenly King Vaiśravaṇa, who comes and goes, residing on the peak of the Khotan mountain, and in the city there is also a shrine on a seven-storey tower; the other is the Heavenly Rat Deity, whose fur is golden and lustrous, the larger ones being like dogs and the smaller ones like hares, exceedingly wondrous, granting all blessings sought, named the King of Rats Deity).
