April 22, 1930, Shenyang, outside the east have Yimin big dig was a family tomb, the tomb of a sarcophagus and a green glazed black vase. Liaoning provincial government when he was Director of the Office of the Secretary-General of Education Jin Yufu that this news, that is with Bianzong Meng, Wang F, to look, and see the sarcophagus inscribed with the former “Chengfeng Lang, keep your observation Texas judge, the Secretary direct test of Dali, Chee Fei Yun Sun fish bag, the Kai Tai seven-year-old plays Wu Wu “31 word inscription. Black glaze vase 25.2 cm high, shoulder and abdomen painted bottles indicum, three hexagonal device surface, the painted Goldsmith, Li Crane, V Rabbit. V startled rabbit in the grass around care, a very lively and vivid. Sarcophagus of the “Kai Tai seven years (1018)” reign as the historical novel, is a mid-Liao. And the bottle dwarfed the indicum, rabbits and other things King nomadic Khitan people is a common grassland things. It can be concluded that this green glazed black vase as “Liao porcelain” no doubt. Jin Yufu discovered and promptly credited to the “quiet room Times Diary” in this black-glazed vase, excavated sites to be the first piece most clearly the most’s clear, first to the academic paper Liao porcelain. So Jin Yufu for future generations respect for the “Father of Liao Ceramics,” Liaoning Provincial Museum marked the beginning of such porcelain collection. However, the “Father of Liao Ceramics,” did not know he also has a home of Liaoyang called “Gang cool kiln,” the “Liao porcelain.” Because the “Gang cool kiln,” the discovery, is the master in Chinese studies from Liaoning things later.
LI Wenxin Liang Gang official kiln research
Liao ceramics found and identified, but a matter of centuries. Early 20th century antique market in Beijing Liulichang there is a process in rough, rustic decoration, and the Central Plains and the South very different style porcelain. People do not know where that came from china, only that it is the flow out from the northeast region, so they called it “North goods.” Later, because Jin Yufu, incidental findings, people became aware of the “North Cargo” is the Liao Dynasty porcelain. Identified 80 years in the Liao Dynasty porcelain process, Liao porcelain collection and research as the most accomplished in Liaoning, in which the famous archaeologist, the Northeast’s most prominent archaeological founder Mr. Li Wenxin, who is also the founder of Liao Ceramics. He has written, “Liao porcelain brief”, “Liao ceramics”, “A Summary of ceramics” (in which a detailed description of the Liao Dynasty porcelain), “written on some of the views Liao porcelain,” and so on, and today many of Liao Ceramics Research His results are then established. Such as the Liao Dynasty porcelain of the most typical “comb maker,” originally called “stirrup pot” or “skins pot” of. Later LI Wenxin No. 2 in 1958, “Heritage Resources” published on the “Liao porcelain brief” in correcting said: “The pot near the mouth have a comb-shaped hole in the big nose, so call to comb pot It was called the stirrup pot is not appropriate. “pot while comb flat body is divided into single-hole type, flat body with two holes-style, flat body ring beam, circular body ring beam, such as five → Information Circular Beam, LI Wenxin of these studies have remained in use ceramic sector.
In 1955, Mr. Li Wenxin on Liaoyang Gang daguantun ancient kiln sites were investigated in detail, and written, “the ancient kiln sites in Liaoyang County Gang daguantun notes”, including “Gang of various kiln firing speculation mounted brace recovery plan” “Liaoyang Gang daguantun near the Map” and the “Gang unearthed near daguantun with ‘Shicheng County’ section of the tile ink stone rubbings moment” and so on. By Mr. Li Wenxin the study further found that account and later confirmed, “Gang kiln” in Liaoyang City, 30 km north east side of the Gang official Datun Village. Ancient kiln sites in 1988 in Liaoning Province was established as the key cultural relics protection units.
An Zhao Mr. Li Wenxin notes in the account, he then walked along the remains, I have inspected several times to the Gang daguantun search, standing opposite the top of the hill Gang daguantun can generally see the location of the village. It’s west hills, south of the Qianshan Mountains, north of the river from the western city of kiln with a beacon across the town, 13 kilometers southwest of small Tunzhen docking, is north of Tang Town in Gongchangling District and 25 km, 5 km southeast of Prince on the river for the Shenwo. Outflow from the Changbai Mountains through the Benxi Prince Edward River from the east came, around north of the village, out of Village West, and ultimately the Hun River, Liaohe the Bohai Bay with great import. Prince Edward River in the Gang daguantun gradually getting deeper and deeper wide turning a corner, forming a peninsula, but the village is in the water on three sides of the peninsula in. Gang daguantun Prince after seven to eight meters high south bank is steep, north shore of the wide gravel and sand. Not far north as the state of the Tang Dynasty Shiraiwa, Liao Yan state, gold Shicheng County site, known as Yan fuzhoucheng. According to the village said the old man, Gang daguantun original two blocks, each year because of water southward invasion, and today only a, the location of North Street, around the river today. Over the river bank erosion in the fault cliff, there are kilns, kiln slag heaps, pits and other exposed out on the steep slopes within the 12-meter thick layer of scattered tiles, brick kiln and kiln furniture and so on.
Today, the Gang daguantun the edge of the crown prince of ancient kiln sites are still submerged river, Although Overwhelming to the shore in the forest, but always static, clear water Lian Lian. Villagers said that this section of the river no matter how big, are not rolling waves, year after year, always quietly flowing. Village not far from the river, most recently after the walls of others on the high base in the South riverside slope. Diffuse scattering of kiln bank slope tiles, shining bright in the sun shine. People along the river gravel that gray brick of the walls, vegetable garden walls or even the toilet walls, irregularly mixed with dark brown brick, it was 89 years ago Gang official kiln of brick, earth’s most luxurious The stone walls. Puzzle on the wall of the horizontal Guzhuan, sand mottled, old color Cang However, as one of the most imposing an oil painting, full of deep feeling, tells the world the old masts lined the river, Prince, Gang daguantun Huozhu days in the kiln The bustling old dream.
“Gang cool kiln” was created nearly three hundred years of prosperity
“Gang kiln,” began the Liao, Jin Sheng in turn, used in poetry, by the time count, at least two to three years. Why is there such a Liao Dynasty flourished here in the kiln? This is mainly historical and geographical Liaoyang then determined.
In the “Gang kiln” prosperous Liao and Jin times, it was history’s most longxing Liaoyang and prosperous period. Tang Dynasty, the rise of the Khitan Liao River Basin. AD 907, Emperor Taizu of Liao Khitan unification ministries. He unified the process of the Northeast region, the first captured Liaoning Province, and the operation of Liaoyang City, give great attention. According to “History of Liao” records, books of God Liao Taejo three years (918), Emperor Taizu of Liao his troops occupied Liaoyang, ordered the construction of the second year of Liaoyang City, and moved the people to enrich Bohai Liaoyang, Liaoyang known as the East Heguri, set defense to greatly enhance the status of the city of Liaoyang. Liao Taizong days was three years (928), in turn Dongdan capital of the country to move together with the people of Liaoyang, also known as the Nanjing Liaoyang, as the provisional capital of Liao.
Liaoyang city then known as Nanking large-scale, week ten miles, surrounded by eight, with Southern and Northern cities, and studied early and late Taipei, South and North are gathering every day, city sound with people. Liao Taizong days was 10 years (938), in turn Liaoyang renamed Tokyo, and also set the Liaoyang government, collectively known as the Tokyo Liaoyang. AD 1116, established new Jurchen Jin capture Liaoyang, Liaoning Gold hit the system, still in Liaoyang is Tokyo, the provisional capital of the country. At the same time because of the mother of Chen Yi Queen Shizong Lee was born in Liaoyang, and Shizong ascended the throne in Liaoyang, Liaoyang City, it is not only busy during the continuation of the Liao, but also in a position of great honor. This specific symbol of prosperity and glory that we see today to Liaoyang National Liaoyang White Tower, one of six ancient pagoda.
