Abstract

Tang Codes was a representative work of Chinese Traditional Legal System. Owing to the sanction of history records, it’s difficult to know the origin of Tang Code. The Qin and Han statutes excavated from Shuihudi and Zhangjiashan can provide a supplement to understand the origin of Tang Code. In the Shuihudi Qin Code, we found the Tian lu 田律(Statutes on Agriculture), Yao lu徭律(Statutes on Corvee), Fu lu傅律(Statutes on Registration)and some remnants can be regard as the origin of Hu lu戶律(Statutes on Households)in Tang Code. We also found four articles concerning marriage in the Falu da wen 法律答問(Answers and Questions Concerning the Qin Statutes), those might be the content of the Hun lu婚律(Statutes on Marriage)of Qin Code. From the Zhangjiashan material, we can also find the Hu lu 、Fu lu、Yao lu、Tian lu and Zhihou lu置後律(Statutes on the Establishment of Successors)in Ernian Luling二年律令(Statutes and Ordinances of the Year Two) which are regard as the origin of Huhun lu戶婚律(Statutes on Households and Marriage)of Tang Code.
