摘要

马什哈德池位于古塞弗里斯以东,从一条向罗马和拜占庭城市供水的渡槽中取水。在挖掘过程中,一个公牛的小铜像被从水池的抹灰地板上拉了出来。这头公牛可以追溯到罗马时期。本文讨论了青铜雕像的图像、功能和可能的意义,以及它在池底沉积的情况。我们认为,也许在城市的水节(Maioumas)期间,雕像作为基础存款,以保证充足的水和繁殖力。公牛的形象符合这样的目的,因为公牛与雨和风暴之神有关。

A Roman Bronze Bull from the Floor of the Mashhad Pool in Sepphoris in the Galilee
The Mashhad Pool is situated east of ancient Sepphoris, receiving its water from an aqueduct that supplied water to the Roman and Byzantine city. During its excavation, a small bronze figurine of a bull was pulled out of the plastered floor of the pool. The bull is dated to the Roman period. This paper deals with the iconography, function, and possible meaning of the bronze figurine, and the circumstances of its deposit in the pool’s floor. We argue that the figurine served as a foundation deposit in order to guarantee abundant water and fecundity, perhaps during a water festival (Maioumas) in the city. The bull image fits such a purpose, as bulls are associated with rain and storm gods.
