**History after I-tsing.** Tibetan sources give some further interesting evidence on the history of Nālandā after I-tsing. It appears that the Tibetan king, Srong-tsan-Gampo (acc. A.D. 630), anxious to introduce to his country Indian writing and learning, sent to India his minister, Thon-mi, with a large quantity of gold to be given away as presents to the Indian scholars.
