秦雍城动物纹瓦当主题研究

Analysis of Eaves Tiles with Animal Motifs in Yongcheng City of the Qin State

秦雍城的动物纹瓦当,具有较强的时代风韵与地域特色。本文在以前研究成果的基础上,对雍城动物纹瓦当的凤纹、虎纹、斗兽纹等与其它载体同主题纹样进行比较,并对雍城动物纹瓦当的年代、"虎燕纹"瓦当名称等问题进行探讨。这三类瓦当纹样既有自身传统的继承,也有三晋文化、北方草原游牧文化的影响,秦人在对其进行整合的基础上,创造出了独具特色的地域文化。

The eaves tiles with animal motifs from Yongcheng of the Qin state represent distinctive temporary and regional characteristics. This paper conducts a comparative analysis of several types of motifs on the eaves tiles discovered in Yongcheng, including the tiger motif, tiger-beast-biting motif, beast fighting motif, and phoenix-biting-snake motif. This paper suggests that the‘tiger-swallow motifs’ should be renamed as‘tiger-beast-biting motif’.These four types of motifs had their own origins and were strongly influenced by the Jin and Chu cultures. Meanwhile, these four types of motifs received influences from northern pastoral-nomadic culture. Artisans in the Qin state synthesized all these artistic traditions and influences,and created the motifs mentioned above that represented characteristic regional style.
