This tutorial review examines manmade blue and purple pigments appearing in antiquity. They were obtained by chemical synthesis from mineral starting materials and refer to chemical compounds: Egyptian Blue (CaCuSi4O10), Han Blue (BaCuSi4O10) and Han Purple (BaCuSi2O6), Maya Blue (x.indigo.(Mg,Al)4Si8(O,OH,H2O)24) and Ultramarine Blue (Na,Ca)8(AlSiO12)(S, SO4,Cl). The Egyptian and Chinese copper-based pigments are assumed to have been developed independently and are presumably an outcome of the historical developments in glazing techniques. A technology transfer from Egypt into China cannot be fully excluded but, based on the facts acquired up to now, looks less probable.
本教程综述考察了古代出现的人造蓝色和紫色颜料。它们是通过从矿物原料进行化学合成而获得的，涉及以下化合物：埃及蓝（CaCuSi4O10）、汉蓝（BaCuSi4O10）和汉紫（BaCuSi2O6）、玛雅蓝（x.靛蓝.(Mg,Al)4Si8(O,OH,H2O)24）以及群青蓝（(Na,Ca)8(AlSiO12)(S, SO4,Cl)）。埃及和中国的铜基颜料被认为是独立发展起来的，大概是釉料技术历史发展的结果。虽然不能完全排除从埃及到中国的技术转移，但根据目前所掌握的事实，这种可能性较小。
