Miniature Pagodas

Stone

蠟石雕小塔

傳韓國大邱廣域市東區道鶴洞桐華寺毗盧庵三層石塔內出土

傳韓國大邱廣域市東區道鶴洞桐華寺毗盧庵三層石塔出土。塔內有四張表面陰刻銘文的方形金銅板,組合而成外函。由銘文可知小塔乃統一新羅景文王(861~874在位)為閔哀王(838在位)追薦冥福而製。此組小塔共三十三座,塔式、尺寸不一。塔基均呈方形,塔身作三重或五重不等,塔剎或作蓮蕾形,或作長圓形,塔底挖有小孔可放置祈願文。
 九世紀統一新羅(668~935)後期,為祈福而製作小塔成為當時的風尚。依《無垢淨光大陀羅尼經》記載,「若造一小泥塔,於中安置此陀羅尼者,則為已造九萬九千諸小寶塔。」據經文所言,該塔內曾安奉九十九座小塔。著名的皇龍寺遺址及海印寺等,於統一新羅時期多處遺址或寺院皆有同樣的出土實例。
