铜蹴(Bronze lei,c.1200 BC)

三星堆博物馆藏(Collection of Sanxingdui Museum)

　铜蹴以立鸟和卷角羊头装饰，器腹饰以涡纹和卷角兽面纹，虎耳兽面纹装饰的圈足上，有六个小圆孔。三星堆青铜尊、蹴出土时，多内盛有海贝或璧、环等玉石器，可见其用途主要用来盛装祭品、祭器，以向神明献祭。

　 The vessel is decorated with perching birds and horned ram heads. The inside of the belly is incised with spiral and curved-horn animal-face patterns. The foot, decorated with tiger-ear animal-faced patterns, has six small holes. The zuns and leis excavated at Sanxingdui were mostly filled with cowry shells or jade ware such as bi and rings. The main function of the lei was to hold objects of sacrifice and ceremonial vessels. 　■资料：香港文化博物馆
