摘要
本文将石刻史料中萨保任官的资料与北朝末年的官品制度以及其他部族首领的任官情况加以对比, 分别对北周、北齐的萨保品位进行了考察, 提出此一时期的萨保品位大致相当于县级长官。此外, 本文还从官品变迁、萨保继承、人员任命等角度, 揭示了中原政权利用官僚品级秩序增强粟特贵族的社会流动性, 并进而统合粟特聚落社会资源的历史进程。
Although scholars have been making progresses in drawing the outline of Sabao (s’rtp’w), the official position brought by the Sogdian immigrants into the bureaucracy system of the Northern Dynasty and Sui Tang China, by using new materials discovered from Sogdians’ graves and epitaphs, it remains difficult to describe it in detail. After carefully comparing the official titles of Sabao recorded in epitaphs with the official rank systems written in historical literature and other ethnic leaders’experiences of serving in local government, the present study, however, deepens our understanding of Sabao, by suggesting that its rank and status in bureaucracy system was approximate to that of the District Magistrate. Approaching the course of disintegration of the Sogdian settlements from the end of the Northern dynasty to the beginning of the Tang dynasty from three aspects: the changes of Sabao’s official rank, the deviation from the inheriting tradition and the way of appointment, this study also points out that the bureaucracy system which the central government used to enhance the Sogdian chieftains’ social mobility played the significant role in this historical course.
