The field #0130 in the Lo valley.
Lo is the Nyen of early post-imperial Tibet and the Nyen kar of the Old Tibetan Annals; the names both are still locally known, with Nyen kar (or Nyen po mkhar) referring to a place in the upper part of the valley (Fig. 8, 9). In lower Lo, the places of present day Lcang bu and Thang dga‘ village (below Phag mo dgon, Fig. 7) correspond to the ancient camp tumulussites of Nyen kar Lcang bu and Thang bu ra. The Stag (Stag lung) in the middle section of the valley (Fig. 10) again may be the Nyen kar Stag rtse mentioned in the Old Tibetan Chronicle see Hazod 2009).
