本文探討班□、晉候穌編鐘銘文中的「戜人」，以及叔尸鐘、叔尸鎛銘文中的「□戜徒」二詞。筆者從聲音的關係及文獻中的記載兩方面切入認為「戜人」即是《左傳》中的「役人」。「役人」的身分為庶人，他們必須配合黃家的需要而服繇役，因此庶人於服役期間即被稱之為「役人」。「役人」的工作內容主要有以下三種，即：采集柴薪、建築城牆、建構壁壘。其中第一項及第三項皆與對外征戰有關，可知「役人」隨軍對外征伐時的工作是采集薪及建構壁壘。至於「□戜徒」一詞，筆者認為當釋為「繇役徒」。其中「繇」為「繇役」之意；「役徒」則與「役人」意含，亦見於《左傳》之中。

The article is to explore “Yi-Ren” (戜人) of Ban-Qui (班□) and Jing-Ho-Su-Bian-Zhong (晉候穌編鐘), “Yao-Yi-Tu” (□戜徒) of Shu-YI Zhong (叔尸鐘) and Shu-Yi Bo (叔尸鎛). I think that the “Yi-Ren” are the “obligatory labors” in Zuo-Zhuan in terms of two aspects, the relationships of sounds and the recored of references. The status of the “obligatory labors” is the ordinary people who have to be enrolled to serve the obligation of labors in order to achieve the needs of the county. Thus, the ordinary people are called the “Yi-Ren” while they are serving the obligation of labors. The three main jobs of “Yu-Ren” are collecting and burning sticks, burning walls, and constructing bases, of which the first and the third ones are both relevant to war fighting. It can be realized that the main jobs of the “Yi-Ren” are collecting and burning sticks and constructing bases while they accompany with the army to war fighting. With regard to “Yao-Yi-Tu” (□□徒), I think that it should be explained as “Yao-Yi-Tu” (繇役徒). The word “Yao” (繇) means “labors” and the “Yi-Tu” (役徒) are the same as the “Yi-Ren” (役人) in Zuo-Zhuan (《左傳》).
