新华社南昌2月12日电2026年是中国生肖纪年的马年，马在中国传统文化中象征着活力、成功与进取， 寄托着人们对美好生活的期许。临近春节，一些博物馆的马蹄金展柜成为新晋"网红打卡点"。 马蹄金，名字是怎么来的？背后有什么故事？近日记者来到南昌汉代海昏侯国遗址博物馆寻找答案。 据史载，马蹄金是汉武帝于太始二年下诏特铸的"黄金纪念币"。马蹄金中的马可不是普通的马，而是西 域良马。西汉时期，中原缺乏良马；元鼎二年，张骞奉命出使西域归来，献上乌孙良马数十匹，武帝把 它们命名为"天马"。 南昌汉代海昏侯国遗址博物馆馆长彭印䃂介绍，据记载，"要褭"为汉代良马的专用名，"赤喙黑身，日 行万里"，"蹏"是"蹄"的异体字，故"褭蹏"特指神驹之蹄。唐人颜师古为《汉书·武帝纪》作注时将"褭 蹏"改为"马蹄"，后世以讹传讹，于是就有了"马蹄金"的俗称。 图为南昌 汉代海昏侯国遗址出土的大号马蹄金。新华社发 这一丝一缕的精工之中，无不彰显大汉之盛。南昌汉代海昏侯国遗址共出土了50枚马蹄金，分大小号； 经科学检测，大号马蹄金纯度约99%，小号纯度约98.6%。海昏侯墓考古领队杨军认为，马蹄金上的赶 珠丝、巩丝这两种细金工艺受希腊艺术影响， ...
