To study the relationship between the glazed pottery from southern China and the lead-glazed pottery in northern China in the Han Dynasty (202BC-220AD), 34 samples unearthed from Shangyu(), Zhejiang Province have been studied by LA-ICP-AES, SEM/EDS and XRD. The results showed that these samples included the typical lead-glazed pottery, the proto-porcelain and the glazed pottery using both lead and calcium as glaze fluxing agents. Previously, the lead-glazed pottery type was considered as the main northern products during the Han dynasty while the calcium-glazed pottery type or the proto-porcelain was the representative of the south of China. However, apart from the two typical types above, a new variety of glaze categorized as the calcium-lead glaze was discovered in the samples from Shangyu. This indicates that there were technology exchanges and amalgamation of lead-glaze and calcium-glaze between the south and the north during the Han Dynasty. As a result, a new type of glazed potteries with both features was created, which had a more beautiful appearance than the proto-porcelain but perhaps had some undesirable aspects. The manufacturing process of the new variety might also lay foundations for the invention of celadon.
为了研究汉代（公元前 202 年-公元 220 年）中国南方的琉璃陶器与北方铅釉陶器之间的关系，对浙江上虞出土的 34 个样本进行了 LA-ICP-AES、SEM/EDS 和 XRD 分析。结果表明，这些样本包括典型的铅釉陶器、原始瓷器和以铅、钙为助熔剂的琉璃陶器。以前，铅釉陶器被认为是汉代北方的主要产品，而钙釉陶器或原始瓷器是中国南方的代表。然而，除了上述两种典型类型外，在浙江上虞出土的样本中还发现了一种新的釉料，可归类为钙铅釉。这表明，在汉代，南北方之间存在铅釉和钙釉技术的交流与融合。因此，一种具有两者特点的新型琉璃陶器被创造出来，它比原始瓷器更美观，但可能存在一些不理想的方面。这种新型琉璃陶器的制造工艺可能也为青瓷的发明奠定了基础。
