齐国古玺陶文杂释二则

Two Cases of Explanation of Ceramic Inscriptions and Seals from the Qi State

本文认为齐国"节墨之亓市工"古玺的末字应该释为"工"。齐国陶文"句华门陈棱再鄗廩坸亭釜节"中的"坸"训治,是攻治之意。由此可见,齐国的官市、官廪经营着手工业。

This paper offers two new explanations for the pottery inscriptions discovered in the Qi States. First, the author argues the last character in the seal inscription ＇Jiamo zi Qi Shigong＇ should be transcribed as ＇gong＇. Second, the term ＇gou＇ （土（句） ） in the ceramic inscription ＇guhuameng dangling zaihaolin Gouting fujie＇ （旬华门陈棱再部廪均亭釜节 ） means ＇gongzhi＇ （management）. The two cases demonstrate that craft industry was managed by the official markets and warehouses of the Qi state.
