唐代在墓葬中出現一種名曰塔式罐的隨葬器，由於相關文獻資料完全沒有記載，使得塔式罐在唐代喪葬風俗中的作用至今未明。目前所出土唐代塔式罐集中在中原集北方地區，且陸續出土。寧夏吳忠地區在2003年基建中發現唐代墓葬群共120座，其中出土大量的塔式罐。本文嘗試整理寧夏吳忠地區出土塔式罐，透過墓葬形制、塔式罐形制紋飾以及墓葬相關資料之研究，以期找出唐代吳忠這個地區民族使用塔式罐之文化源流。

Tang Dynasty Tower Canisters Excavated in Wuzhong, Ningxia: A Preliminary Study A funerary device called a tower canister has been found in tombs dating to the Tang Dynasty. However, because no records about tower canisters exist in the literature, the function of such canisters in the funeral customs of the Tang Dynasty remains unclear. Currently, tower canisters from the Tang Dynasty continue to be excavated in the northern region of Central China. In 2003, during infrastructure construction, 120 tombs were unearthed in Wuzhong, Ningxia, revealing numerous tower canisters. In this study, the tower canisters excavated from Wuzhong were examined. In particular, the funeral systems, ornamentation patterns on the canisters, and information related to funerals and tombs were investigated to identify the cultural origins of tower canister use by the people of Wuzhong during the Tang Dynasty.
