Abstract
In this paper, we chose late war purple octagonal prismatic ware excavated at the Hejia Cemetery in Xianyang as the object of study, and carried out scientific analysis using ultra-deep field microscopy, scanning electron microscopy and energy spectrum analysis, X-ray diffraction, and microscopic Raman spectroscopy. First of all, the features of the formation and weathering process were determined, then the samples of unweathered areas obtained by the sectioning method were examined, and it was confirmed that all 12 samples are barium copper silicate with the main phases of Chinese violet (BaCuSi2O6) and Chinese dark blue (BaCu2Si2O7) colors. Based on compositional characteristics, etc. it was also found that this group of purple octagonal vessels embodies two different manufacturing processes and may represent an evolution of the process from lead-barium glass to cupro-barium silicate. On this basis, issues such as the population, distribution area and functional characteristics of this type of dish are discussed in order to obtain new ideas and evidence for relevant research.
