摘　　要：两汉至三国时期中国史籍中开始频繁出现外船踪迹。本文从风帆起源研究及相关理论入手,立足中、西1古代一手文献展开跨地域比较研究,从而勾勒出一幅前2世纪至2世纪之间,风帆与海船技术由地中海向印度乃至中国沿海缓慢"东渐"的"第一次浪潮"的大致图景,并解释了为何这一浪潮在中国激起的反响仅有风帆的产生而未导致海船兴盛。Traces of sea boat coming from abroad began to be found frequently during the Han Dynasty and the period of Three Kingdoms.In this paper,studies on the origin of sails and relevant theories were reviewed,and cross region comparative investigations were conducted based mainly on the first-hand historical records both of the West and of China.Thus,ageneral picture was drawn of the First Wave of the gradual eastward spreading of the sailing and sea boat technology from Mediterranean to India,and to coastal China,between the 2nd century B.C.and the 2nd century A.D.Besides,the reason for the only birth of sailing boat instead of the prosperity of sea boats in China was also explained.
