对出土文物资料中“节”的考察

A Study of "Tallies" from Unearthed Cultural Relics

在汉代社会生活中,作为一种身份象征'节'的上端是二重毦、三重毦的问题,借助众多画像资料可以确认是三重;王杖简中的'比于节',在揭示节与杖关系的同时,也为节的管理提供了信息;而敦煌地区边塞防御系统中存在的一种'部'级候长'节'尚不为人所知。

As a symbol of social status in Han social life,tallies have presented the issue of whether their upper ends have double or triple decorations.With the help of many image materials,we can determine that they have triple decorations.The Chinese characters"比于节"on Wang Zhang bamboo slips have provided some information concerning the management of tallies while they expose the relationship between tallies and imperial scepters.Little known to people is the long"tally"of"ministerial"level that existed in the frontier defense system of the Dunhuang region.
