浙江地区战国原始瓷生产高度发展的原因探析

An Analysis on the Highly Developed Protoporcelain Production of Zhejiang During the Warring States

浙江地区的原始瓷生产在战国时期达到了顶峰,主要表现在窑址增加、窑区增多、烧造规模扩大,产品器类大幅增加、大量仿铜制品出现,技术和工艺提高,产品质量显著提高等,其原因主要在于于越民族坚守用仿铜原始瓷礼器替代青铜礼器随葬的传统,推崇、模仿中原礼乐制度的同时发展、健全越国礼制,以及盛行厚葬之风等。

The protoporcelain production in Zhejiang reached its zenith during the Warring States time,which was shown in the increasing kiln numbers, expanding production areas, enlarging production scales,more diverse utensil types, prominent emergence of products imitating bronzes, advancement of skills and craftsmanship, and improvement of products quality. The main reasons are believed to be that the Yuyue people held the tradition to use bronze-imitating protoporcelain to replace bronze for ritual use, that they were developing the Yue ritual system while admiring and following that of the central plain, and that lavish funerals were prevailing at the time.
