廣西容縣出土的唐代安玄朗墓志是中國目前發現的地理位置最南的粟特人墓志。安玄朗之祖父安靖應于817年隨節度使孔戣來到嶺南,出任地方武職,后代遂留此地。安靖、安貫言和安玄朗三代人均受到嶺南地方節鎮的禮遇和重用。該墓志為研究唐中晚期粟特人的動向及其漢化的過程提供了新的材料。

An Xuanlang’s epitaphs, which has been found from Rongxian county, Guangxi, is the only inscription record about Sogdian in the most southern part of China. According to the textual records, An Xuanlang’s grandfather, An Jing, arrived in the Lingnan Region around 817 AD, accompanying the Jiedushi(military commissioner), Kong Kui, and settled down there to serve as a military official. The three generations, An Jing, An Guanyan, and An Xuanlang, were highly recognized and appointed to important positions by local officials in Lingnan. This piece of information provides new understanding for the movement of Sogdian and how they were assimilated to Han culture.
