摘要

8世纪的沙漠宫殿Khirbat al Mafjar(在今天的约旦)是倭马亚人奢华生活方式和他们对艺术的感知的无与伦比的标本。宫殿是各种装饰类型的融合,如雕刻和模塑灰泥,石浮雕,鸟类和人物雕塑,还有壁画。它以保存完好的地板马赛克而闻名。虽然被认为是哈里发希沙姆(公元724年- 743年),但他的继任者和他的侄子阿尔瓦利德二世可能建造了这座宫殿(公元743年- 44年)。然而,五年后,瓦利德去世了,宫殿因地震而被毁。本文讨论了建筑的设计结构以及建筑中使用的装饰和装饰品种。虽然这座宫殿以其马赛克而闻名,但本文涵盖了其建筑的主要部分和所有类型的品种。这是一项从历史资料、文献和发掘报告中收集的探索性研究,最后得出的结论是,这座宫殿的独特之处不仅在于它的多样性,还在于装饰元素的象征意义。这些符号在宫殿中有一定的逻辑或理由,说明了主人的权力和权威。换句话说,不仅描绘了奢华的生活方式,而且美学和象征性的设计都是这座倭马亚时代建筑的一部分。

The Architecture and Decoration Varieties of Khirbat al Mafjar
The 8th century desert palace Khirbat al Mafjar remains (in present day Jordan) is a matchless specimen of Umayyad luxurious lifestyle and their perception for art. The palace is amalgamation of variety of decoration type like carved and moulded stucco, stone relief and birds and figure sculpture and also frescos paintings.  It is famous for its well-preserved floor mosaics.  Although credited to caliph Hisham (r. AD 724– 743) but his successor and also his nephew named as  Al Walid   II probably built this palace (r. AD 743– 44) . However after five years Al-Walid’s died and, the palace was smashed due to an earthquake. This article discusses the building designed structure and the ornamentation and decoration varieties used in the architecture. Though this palace is famous for its mosaics but this paper covers its main parts of architecture and all types of varieties. It’s an explorative study collected from historical data, literature and excavation reports and in the end it concludes that this palace is unique not only for its varieties but also the symbolic meanings of elements in the decoration. These symbols have some logic or reason of representing in the palace that explains the power and authority of the owner. In other words not just depiction of luxurious lifestyle but the aesthetics and symbolic both designs are the parts of this Umayyad era building.
