Abstract普彤塔位於邢台南宮市西北1.5公里,舊城村東北約200米處,原普彤寺內(圖一)。 1966年3月8日,邢台大地震時從普彤塔上震落觀音銅造像3尊(NW006、NW040、NW047)。 1990年10月,河北省文物局撥款對四層以上普彤塔進行落架重修時在塔身佛龕內又發現銅造像39尊。

The Putong Pagoda is situated in Xingtai,Hebei,200 m northeast of the old city of Nangong that lies 1.5 km northwest of present day Nangong.Originally it was enclosed in the compound of the former Putong Temple.Distinctive in architectural style,it is a nine- story solid octagonal brick tower with a rather massive foundation built above a well.The first and second stories are furnished with false windows on the western and eastern sides; the first to fourth stories,with shrines on the northern and southern sides;and for the fifth story and above,such shrines are made on all the four sides.The pagoda was built in the tenth year,the Emperor Mingdi’s Yongping reign,Han Dynasty,rebuilt by monk Hai Gong in the fourth year,the Emperor Wenzong’s Taihe reign,Tang Dynasty,and was added with an iron finial in the shape of an upward lotus flower supporting a gourd when repaired in the Jiajing reign,Ming Dynasty.In the earthquake of 1966 in Xingtai,three bronze statuses of Avalokitesvara fell down from the padoga top;and in 1990,when the fourth story and above were completely rebuilt,39 bronze statuses were discovered in shrines of the tower.These 42 images share roughly the same shape,style,casting technology and inscription-engraving technique;and most of them have a regular face and a well-proportioned figure wearing smooth-creased dress and showing skillful workmanship,though some have a slightly exaggerated head and a corpulent body.The Bodhisattvas have cast off the previous style of depicting a tall body,a slender waist,full breasts and plump hips;they are represented well in proportion with a charming but still dignified posture.The highest statue measures 58 cm,while the shortest 15 cm.14 works bear inscriptions,including six pieces with the dates of 15th day,seventh,eighth,ninth or tenth moon,15th Jiajing year.The other inscriptions contain detailed records on the donors’ native places (villages,counties,districts and prefectures) and teachers,and also the producing area (Jizhou District) and makers (Liu Huai and Liu Rong) in some cases.Bodhisattva No.6 is inscribed with the words that the Putong Pagoda was first built on the 15th day,first moon,Mingdi’s Yongping reign, Eastern Han Dynasty,and rebuilt by monk Hai Gong in the fourth year,Wenzong’s Taihe reign,Tang Dynasty.The statues reveal very important information of regional culture, providing not only reliable data on the rural history of the Nangong area and the development of Buddhism in the region,but also evidence on bronze casting and statue-making technology in Jizhou District of the Ming period,and the definitely-dated statues furnished invaluable material for the dating of Buddhist bronze images.
