zun
The zun () or yi (, used until Northern Song) is a type of ancient Chinese bronze or ceramic wine vessel with a round or square vase-like form, and sometimes in the shape of an animal,〔http://arts.cultural-china.com/en/30Arts2059.html〕 dating from the Shang Dynasty. Used in religious ceremonies to hold wine, the zun has a wide lip to facilitate pouring. Vessels have been found in the shape of a dragon, an ox, a goose, and more.〔http://114.255.205.171/english/tabid/549/Default.aspx?AntiqueLanguageID=2485〕〔http://114.255.205.171/english/tabid/549/Default.aspx?AntiqueLanguageID=2473〕〔http://114.255.205.171/english/tabid/549/Default.aspx?AntiqueLanguageID=2476〕〔http://www.brooklynmuseum.org/opencollection/objects/3605/Wine_Vessel_Zun_in_the_Form_of_a_Goose〕 One notable zun is the He zun.
==Function and use==
The zun is a vessel used as a ritual container to hold wine in ancient Chinese. It is a tall wine cup, with no handles or legs. The mouth of the vessel is normally seen as broader than the rest of the body. As a ritual container, its function is to provide the offering of wine to the deceased through ceremonial practices. Depending on the type of zun vessel, for example the Xi zun, not only was it used to store wine but also used to keep the wine warm. This is the only bronze piece discovered known to combine the two functions.〔http://arts.cultural-china.com/en/69Arts7435.html〕
