流動的物：安平壺在生命史中意義的變化

Abstract

安平壺作為容器在中國窯址被大量生產，被用於盛裝許多不同的貨物，經由不同的貿易商、貿易路線被運送、銷售至消費地。主要分布於東亞與東南亞地區，並隨著不同人群進入到各地區中的不同的聚落中。

從產地運輸至消費地過程中，安平壺的意義並非固定不變，也並非每個地區皆一致。每個消費地各自的貿易、政治、社會與文化背景，可能使得安平壺進入各地區的途徑與種類有所差異。而安平壺在當地如何被使用與再利用、被賦予的意義，以及如何脫離原本貿易脈絡也不盡相同。因此，本論文嘗試釐清安平壺的流動，包含如何從產地運輸至消費地的移動過程與運輸途徑，以及過程中意義如何變動。並探討原本作為商品容器的安平壺，如何從商品脈絡脫離，進入不同群體中，在該群體藉由物實踐自身生活與文化後，又反映不同社群的社會文化差異或變遷。

本論文選擇兩個年代相近，但居住人群、社會文化、貿易活動與政治環境等皆不相同的消費地遺址：宜蘭淇武蘭遺址與臺南熱蘭遮城東北稜堡遺址，進行分析與討論。透過觀察與登錄安平壺各部位之型制、製作痕與測量屬性，運用統計工具進行分析，並透過具有定年與分期資料的淇武蘭遺址，與東北稜堡遺址地層脈絡相互對照與比較。再結合過去學者的研究與調查報告等文獻，以對安平壺生命史中生產、運輸至消費的各階段進行梳理，並對分析結果進行詮釋，以探討兩地之間安平壺生命歷程的異質性，以及使用脈絡與意義的獨特性。

盼能透過本論文的研究，為17世紀以來、作為瓷器消費地與重要貿易中繼站的臺灣，增添不同的研究視角，以呈現出臺灣各地區各自的歷史發展與獨特的物質文化。亦期望能以臺南熱蘭遮城遺址與宜蘭淇武蘭遺址的安平壺資料，為臺灣安平壺研究增加更多基礎資料。

Anping jars, widely produced at Chinese kiln sites, were used to store various goods and transported via different trade routes and merchants to their destinations. Mainly distributed in East and Southeast Asia, Anping jars were introduced into various settlements by diverse groups of people.

The significance of Anping jars varied throughout the process of production, transportation, and consumption. Due to the distinct trade, political, and socio-cultural backgrounds of each region, the paths and types of Anping jars entering different regions varied, as did their local uses, repurposing, and the meanings ascribed to them. These variations reflect how these jars moved from their origin to consumption sites, how their uses and meanings evolved, and how they transitioned from trade commodities to items integrated into local communities, reflecting the socio-cultural differences or changes of these communities.

This thesis examines two consumption sites: the Kiwulan site in Yilan and the Northeast Bastion of Fort Zeelandia in Tainan, distinct from each other in peoples, social cultures, political environments, and trade activities. I analyze the forms, manufacturing marks, and measured attributes of Anping jars, using statistical tools to compare the stratigraphic contexts of the Northeast Bastion of Fort Zeelandia with the dating and periodization data of the Kiwulan site. I also examine previous research and reports to trace the production, distribution, and consumption stages of Anping jars, exploring how political, trade, and social environments of the two sites affect the range of their obtained jar types and their usage contexts, changes, and meanings in each site.

This research aims to provide a new perspective on Taiwan as a major porcelain consumption and trade hub since the 17th century, highlighting the unique characteristics of different regions. Additionally, it seeks to enrich the foundational data on Anping jars through the findings from the Northeast Bastion of Fort Zeelandia site and Kiwulan site.
