A Study of Bronze Mirrors with Continuous Arch Pattern from the Warring States Period and Unearthed in Changsha

连弧纹镜是出现于战国晚期楚镜中的新镜种,过去对该镜群的起始年代意见分歧较大。本文通过对湖南省博物馆所藏24件长沙出土的连弧纹镜的分型分式和对同墓伴随所出仿铜陶礼器以及日常生活用品的比较研究,对不同纹饰的连弧纹镜进行了不同的断代分析。本文还对该镜群的纹饰起源及其发展演变进行了探讨分析,进一步论证了连弧纹其实就是一种太阳光芒纹,连弧纹镜的纹饰其实就是太阳崇拜、祭祀太阳的一种产物。
