山西屯留石窟及摩崖造像调查简报

Brief report on investigation of grottoes and cliff statues in Tunliu,Shanxi province

2021年1月和6月,山西大学考古系对山西长治市屯留县小石佛头摩崖造像和广泉寺石窟进行了调查。小石佛头摩崖造像共有三龛,均坐南朝北,由西向东依次编为第1至3龛,其中第2龛正上方有大魏延昌二年(513年)纪年题记。广泉寺石窟共有一窟,坐东朝西,窟内三壁开三龛,四壁遍刻千佛。根据洞窟形制、造像题材与风格推断,该窟可能开凿于东魏。这两处摩崖造像及石窟的发现为完善晋东南地区北朝佛教造像的年代序列和研究当地佛教的发展情况提供了重要资料。

In January and June of 2021,the school of Archaeology and Museology from Shanxi University investigated Xiaoshifotou Cliff Statues and Guangquan Temple Grotto in Tunliu County,Changzhi City,Shanxi Province.There are currently 3 engraved niches in Xiaoshifotou Cliff Statues arranged from west to east.Above the second niche,there is an inscription with date of the year 513,the second year of Yanchang Period in the Northern Wei Dynasty.There is one grottoe in Guangquan Temple,in which there are three niches on three walls respectively and thousands of small Buddha figurines carved on four walls.It can be infered that the grotto was carved in Eastern Wei according to the shape,content and style.In brief,these new discoveries are not only important materials for completing the chronological sequence of Buddhist statues of the Northern Dynasties in the Southeast Region of Shanxi,but also for studying the Buddhism development of this area.
