论我国南方出土的商代青铜大口尊

A Preliminary Study on the Bronze Open-mouthed Zun-vessel of the Shang Dynasty Unearth in Southern China

在我国南方地区,历年出土了大量的商代青铜礼器,其中有一类大口尊出土范围广,发现数量较多,在南方商代青铜器中非常重要。从50～80年代初,安徽、湖南、重庆和陕西等地就不断有大口尊零散出土。1986年四川广汉三星堆发现两座器物坑,从坑中又出土一批大口尊。特别是近年来,在湖北等地也不断有新的发现。学术界对三星堆出土的包括大口尊在内的青铜器进行过深入的研究。

Numerous bronze ritual vessels have unearthed in the southern part of the country. Ofthem, an open-mouthed zun features a wide distribution and a large number. From the1950s to 1980s, sporadic discovery of the vessels was reported from Anhui, Hunan,Chongqing and Shaanxi. All these, together with a batch unearthed from the two accessorypits at Sanxingdui, Guanghan in Sichuan in 1986, and the repeated discovery of them inHubei, call for a systematic research of southern China open-mouthed zun in terms of type,time, feature and evolution, which will help our understanding of the whole family ofbronze objects in the area. Since this kind of vessels have also unearthed in the upper andlower streams of Changjiang River, and since they have something in common, the researchon them will bring to light the relationship between different bronze cultures in southernChina.
