商周铜昜研究

Study On Bronze Yang During the Shang and Zhou Period

铜昜是一种通过沿面上的钉孔装配在漆木盾上的一种器物。本文通过对铜易形制、组合、分布、族属、流行时间的分析,揭示圆形圆顶易以及戈、昜的组合发生在以先周文化为主的关中地区,主要流行时间在西周早期,到了两周之际基本消失,进入西周后其在关东地区出现。这可作为商周分期断代的一个标尺。

Bronze yang is one type of instruments attaching to lacquered shield through its drilled holes.This article focuses on the analyses of numbers of issues related to this type of artifacts,Such as its context with other paraphernalia,distribution,ethnicity,and chronology,in order to show changes on its styles and usage.The conclusion is that the assemblage of ge dagger and yang was adopted initially in the Guanzhong region by western communities-most of them belonged to the ethnic groups with ji-clan name.This practice flourished in the early Western Zhou Dynasty and vanished during the transitional period between the Western and Eastern Zhou Dynasty.Once this assemblage appeared in the Guanzhong region,other accompany relics should be post-dated the Western Zhou period.
