介绍（中）	这盏陶瓷灯是在637年被阿拉伯穆斯林军队征服的萨珊王朝大都市和行政首都Ctesiphon发现和购买的。这座城市在阿拉伯语中被称为al-Mada'in，或"城市"，因为它的面积扩大。阿拉伯历史学家沉迷于描述al-Mada'in/Ctesiphon的宏伟纪念碑，这些纪念碑痴迷于穆斯林统治者，并可能获得了与其帝国过去有关的象征意义。Taq-i Kisra就是这种情况，这是一个令人印象深刻的伊万（一个一侧开放的拱形大厅），部分拆除，以便在新首都巴格达的哈里发建筑中重复使用其砖块。在这里，在放置燃烧桩的边缘上可以看到火的痕迹。这盏灯属于自帕提亚时期以来在美索不达米亚制造的绿松石釉面陶瓷的悠久传统，它代表了萨珊王朝晚期或早期伊斯兰的演变。带有圆形开放式储液罐和略微挤压的壶嘴的灯后来被放弃，取而代之的是更受挤压的形状。在这里，在放置燃烧桩的边缘上可以看到火的痕迹。
介绍（英）	This ceramic lamp was found and purchased in Ctesiphon, the Sasanian metropolis and administrative capital conquered by Arab Muslim armies in 637. The city was known in Arabic as al-Mada’in, or "the cities", for its extended area. Arab historians indulge in describing al-Mada’in/Ctesiphon’s grand monuments, which obsessed Muslim rulers and may have acquired a symbolic meaning related to its imperial past. This was the case of the Taq-i Kisra, an impressively-sized ivan (a vaulted hall with one side open) partially dismantled to reuse its bricks in caliphal buildings in the new capital Baghdad. Here, traces of fire are visible on the rim where the burning stub would have been placed. This lamp belongs to a long-standing tradition of turquoise-glazed ceramics made in Mesopotamia since the Parthian period, of which it represents a late Sasanian or Early Islamic evolution. Lamps with circular open reservoirs and slightly pinched spout were later abandoned in favor of more pinched shapes. Here, traces of fire are visible on the rim where the burning stub would have been placed.
