gōutóu (tòngwǎ, <roofing tile by form>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: A type of roofing tile. Term used in the Qing court architectural manual, the Gongcheng zuofa (1734), to describe the type of barrel tile (tongwa 筒瓦) which is used to cap the end of covering tiles at the eaves. A goutou is the barrel tile at the bottom of each tile row used to cap the ends (Liang 1981, 78). This term is commonly found in Ming and Qing dynasty texts. An earlier term for this element is "wadang." |

Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 筒瓦的一種,剖面如 “┍—”,用於檐頭以遮擋檐部. “勾頭”見于明以後的文獻,如清工部《工程做法》 “勾頭”是筒瓦每隴最下有圓盤為頭之瓦 (梁 1981,78)。作為蓋瓦用於檐頭以遮擋檐部。明清時期文獻中的勾頭如以前的 "瓦當"。 |
