蒙元时期山东盐务管理机构与职官设置——以碑刻为中心

The Salt Affairs Administration Institution and Officials in Shandong during the Mongol-Yuan Period:Centred on Monumental Inscriptions

传世文献中关于蒙元时期山东地区的盐务机构和职官设置的记载,反映了这一时期山东盐务系统的调整与变化,但错漏缺失之处甚多。通过收集梳理蒙元时期碑刻和地方志中金石志相关材料可以发现,碑刻材料反映了山东都转运司、盐运分司和盐场司在蒙元时期的机构和职官设置情况与变迁过程,验证了《元史》《元典章》等关于山东盐务机构变迁和都转运司职官设置的记载,补充了文献材料中盐务分司和盐场司职官设置记录不全的问题,弥补了史料中山东盐务机构与职官存续时代不清晰、记载混乱等缺憾。

Although the extant literature on the salt affairs administration institution and official appointments in Shandong during the Mongol-Yuan period reveals significant adjustments and transformations within the salt affairs system of the period,there are still many omissions and inaccuracies in the books.Through the meticulous collection and analysis of epigraphic materials and local gazetteers,specifically those pertaining to inscriptions from the Mongol-Yuan period,it becomes apparent that these inscriptions provide valuable insights into the institutional framework and official appointments of the General Transport Division in Shandong,the Salt Transport Sub-Division,and the Salt Field Division during the Mongol-Yuan period.These findings corroborate the accounts found in the Yuan Shi(History of Yuan)and the Yuan Dianzhang(The Collection of Laws of the Yuan Dynasty)concerning the evolution of the salt affairs administration institutions and the official appointments within the General Transport Division in Shandong.Furthermore,this evidence addresses the incomplete records of the official appointments in the Salt Transport Sub-Division and the Salt Field Division that are present in the extant literature,thereby rectifying the deficiencies of the historical sources regarding the continuity and clarity of the records on Shandong salt affairs administration institutions and their officials.
