摘要
资阳半月山大佛是四川第三大佛,全国重点文物保护单位,被认为是唐代弥勒大像。2019年,配合大佛保护工程进行了考古调查。调查中发现大佛身体比例极不协调,龛口不规则,通过现场观察及文献梳理,我们认为,资阳半月山大佛不是一次性工程,开凿过程中曾改变设计。大佛始凿于唐代贞元时期,当时仅开出了头部,之后又有人接续前工,向下开凿到肩至腹部,向下开凿时双肩以下所在龛壁两侧有所加宽,形成了不太规整的龛口,没有雕刻双腿。南宋绍兴元年,汝南人梅修请人用石块垒砌了双腿并为大佛开光。明代中叶之后,有人重新发现了大佛,于1456至1531年的70多年间,在大佛前兴建佛殿,用石块垒砌方式修补了大佛的双手、双脚,又扩修寺院及装塑各类神像。上世纪70年代寺院尚存,1991年维修时,拆掉原来石块修砌的双腿,再次用石块重新修砌了双手、双脚。
Banyueshan Giant Buddha in Ziyang,as one of historical and cultural relics under national protection,is the third largest Buddha in Sichuan Province and considered to be a Tangs statue of Maitreya.During the archaeological survey and the protection project in 2019,it was found that the body of the Buddha was out of proportion and the outline of the niche was irregular.Through the on-site observation and literature review,we believe that the Banyueshan Giant Buddha was not finished in one time and the design was changed during the construction process.The construction started during the Zhenyuan reign in the Tang dynasty and only the head was shaped.Then the shoulders and abdomen were dug in a later period.Besides,the widening of the both sides below the shoulders brought a less regular niche.In the first year of Shaoxing era in the Southern Song dynasty,Mei Xiu,born in Runan,built Buddha’s legs with stones and consecrated the Buddha.After the mid Ming dynasty,the Giant Buddha was rediscovered.From 1456 to 1531,the hands and feet of the giant Buddha were repaired with stones.A temple with various statues was built in front of the Buddha,which still existed in the 1970s.In 1991,the hands and legs of the Buddha were rebuilt with stones.
