Da Qin is a pagoda[?] built about 640 AD by early Christians who came to Chang'an (now Xi'an) over the Silk Road.
The temple still exists and is located on the grounds of Lou Guan temple, about 50 miles southwest of Xi'an.
Da Qin was "rediscovered" in 1998 and its roots in early Chinese Christianity were recognized.

The significance of the term Da Qin is that it can mean 'Of the West.' It can also mean the Great Qin as in the Qin dynasty of 221- 208 BC.
Yet in the 8th century, when the Da Qin monastery was at its height, the Church stretched three times as far as the Church of the West and had probably twice as many churches and Christians as the Church of the West.
At an archaeological level, the discovery and planned excavation of Da Qin is as important as the discovery of the terra cotta warriors.

After this defeat, the Da Yuezhi again migrated west, this time passing through Dayuan (Ferghana) and most likely through Kangju (north of Sogdia) into the kingdom of Daxia (Bactria), where the Da Yuezhi were said to have reduced Daxia into vassalage and established their capital north of the Amu Darya river.
When the Da Yuezhi arrived in Bactria, they set up 5 xihou (yabghu) called Xiumi, Shuangmi, Guishuang, Xidun, and Dumi, all of which were probably situated in the eastern mountainous area of the former state of Bactria.
In wake of the Da Yuezhi migrations, the Saka tribes from the Yili Basin were displaced and moved south of the Hindu Kush, where they settled and formed several kingdoms only to later fall again to the rising power of the Kushanas.

An Duong's kingdom was short-lived, however, being conquered in 208 B.C. by the army of the Chinese Qin dynasty (221-207 B.C.) military commander Trieu Da (Zhao Tuo in Chinese).
Reluctant to accept the rule of the Qin dynasty's successor, the new Han dynasty (206 B.C.-A.D. 220), Trieu Da combined the territories under his control in southern China and northern Vietnam and established the kingdom of Nam Viet (Nan Yue in Chinese), meaning Southern Viet.

Meanwhile, the history side of the tale aims to put Da Qin society in context for the non-specialist.
When we are told, for example, that the Da Qin monks treated women in a far more just and enlightened manner than did their Confucian and Buddhist contemporaries, can we trust the statement?
What readers need now is a new translation of the Da Qin sutras--a book that eschews mythmaking and illuminates the instrinsic beauty of the texts themselves.
