Abstract:
In Tang Dynasty, a sect of Christianity was propagandized in China and it was called Nestorianism in Chinese literature. Nestorianism was not spread in isolated situation, the missionaries in China kept in touch with the church headquarters in Baghdad. From the start of its coming into China, Nestorianism had connection with the church headquarters. As the first churchman coming into Chang'an, A-lo-pen was sent by the church headquarters. Afterwards, the church headquarters constantly sent missionaries into China in order to support the activities of their followers and to make the continuous propagation of Nestorianism. After the destroy of Buddhism in Huichang period, Nestorianism in the inland of China was then in a sinking state, but it still had propagation in Western Regions. During the period of later Tang Dynasty, in the area of Gaochang in Western Regions, the activities of Nestorians had intimate connections with the church headquarters. The missionary of Gaochang Nestorianism was a branch ordered by the church headquarters.
