印尼Belitung海底沉船出水的大批文物(尤其是长沙窑瓷器)充分说明,唐代中国海外贸易繁盛的规模远远超乎昔日学术著作和教科书的描述和评价。中国陶瓷经由海路外销并不是从16世纪或17世纪葡萄牙人、荷兰人东来之后才开始兴盛,而是早在唐朝时期就已随着波斯舶、大食舶和婆罗门舶等西亚、南亚的商舶前来中国交易而大量地流向海外。在这一早期陶瓷外销的过程中,湖南长沙窑扮演了一个非常重要的角色。唐代中国海外贸易之所以兴盛,不仅有着当时中国经济迅速发展的内因,而且还有着不可忽略的外部因素,即波斯湾地区阿拉伯穆斯林商贾经营的海外贸易在阿巴斯王朝时期迅速发展,以及东南亚海岛地区室利佛逝帝国的崛起并成为扼守马六甲海峡和巽他海峡的海上强国。毋庸讳言,古代波斯人和阿拉伯人在印度洋和南中国海贸易圈中十分活跃,他们是唐代海外贸易的主要经营者,为推动当时东西方的经济及文化交往做出了巨大的贡献。
The large number of cultural relics (especially the Changsha Kiln porcelain) from the Belitung seabed outfall in Indonesia fully demonstrated that the scale of the prosperous overseas trade in the Tang Dynasty far exceeded the description and evaluation of the old academic books and textbooks. Chinese ceramics exported by sea did not start to flourish until the arrival of the Portuguese and the Dutch in the 16th or 17th centuries, but as early as the Tang Dynasty, along with Persia, Great Food and Brahmins, Western Asia and South Asia Merchants come to China to trade and mass flow overseas. In this early ceramic export process, Hunan Changsha kiln plays a very important role. The reason why the rise of China’s overseas trade in the Tang Dynasty was not only the internal cause of the rapid development of China’s economy at the time but also an insignificant external factor that the overseas trade run by Arab Muslim merchants in the Persian Gulf developed rapidly during the Abbasid dynasty and that Southeast Asia The rise of the empire of Sri Lanka in the island region of Sri Lanka became a maritime power holding the Straits of Malacca and Strait of Alta. Needless to say, the ancient Persians and Arabs were active in the Indian Ocean and South China Sea trade circles. They were the major operators of overseas trade in the Tang Dynasty and made great contributions to promoting the economic and cultural exchanges between the East and the West at that time.
