Ethnological Reports 76This volume is a part of results of three successive research projects: An International Interdisciplinary Field Survey of the Bon Culture in Tibet (1996-1998 fiscal years), Reconstruction of the Zhangzhung Language and Formation of Written Tibetan (1999-2001), and Linguistic Substratum in Tibet - Synchronic survey of undescribed Tibeto-Burman languages and reconstruction of Zhangzhung language (2004-2008). In the third project, we have focused our research solely on analysis of Zhangzhung language as well as field linguistic survey on undescribed Tibeto-Burman languages which are supposed to have some historical relationship to Zhangzhung.This lexicographic work contains terms described as being of Zhangzhung origin in the texts of the Bon tradition alongside Tibetan terms that have a specific meaning in the context of Bon religious texts. It is the first time that such an attempt to collect them has ever been made. The terms are collected from only a few texts regarded as authoritative, and by no means can the present work be considered as exhaustive even within the texts from which the terms are collected. The present work is simply a tentative start, because the Bon literature is so vast that it would take at least decades to make a complete and thorough review of all the terms to be entered.
