This paper is devoted to Andrzej Zaki’s preparations of the expedition, which was Professor’s another project regarding mountain archaeology. The expedition to the Himalayas and to the Tibetan Plateau planned for the end of the ’80s and the beginning of ’90s had been preceded by careful research on the history of human settlement in this area. The research was focused not only on written sources but it also included close contacts with the Office of Dalai Lama XIV living in Dharamsala. Polish Himalayan climber, Wanda Rutkiewicz also played a significant role in the project. The aim of the planned archaeological excavations near the chosen Buddhist monasteries was focused on the creation of a more precise chronology of antiques found during precedent excavations.}, type={Article}, title={Plans of archaeological excavations in Himalayas and Tibet – the last of Andrzej Żaki’s big research projects}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/113568/PDF/AAC_53_11.pdf}, keywords={Andrzej Żaki, Himalaya, Tibet, Pei Wei Chung}, }
