铜鼎是从陶制的三足鼎演变而来的，起初用来烹煮食物，后主要用于祭祀和宴享，是商周时期重要的礼器之一。鼎，古代原是饪食器，后来变为统治政治权利的重要象征，视为镇国之宝和传国之宝，也是“明贵贱，别上下”等级制的标志。
Copper tripod evolved from pottery tripod. It was first used to cook food， then mainly used for sacrifice and feast. It was one of the most important ritual vessels in Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Ding， originally a cooking utensil in ancient times， became an important symbol of the political rights of the ruling class. It was regarded as the treasure of town and country and the treasure of spreading the nation. It was also the symbol of the hierarchical system of "noble and cheap，铜鼎， distinguishing from superior and inferior".
铜鼎作为早期的一种器具，具有自己的功能与精神标志。不仅在那个时代的生活以及精神文明体系发挥了非常重要的作用。
铜鼎出现时也是作为捧住食物或烧水用，但是后来， 铜鼎成为的象征。在商周时期，有这样一个规定，在过节或过寿时，在富贵家族中，谁得到的鼎多或者说谁得到的鼎大，就表明谁的地位，所以在那时，人们除送佛像等礼品外，还在送鼎，这也表示着对主人的尊敬。随着时光流逝，虽然铜鼎已不再代表，但它存在的艺术价值是不可磨灭的，是任何物质都不能代替的，还永远留在悠久的历史中。
关于“鼎”的来历及作用：鼎本来是古代的烹饪之器，相当于现在的锅，用以炖煮和盛放鱼肉。许慎在《说文解字》里说：“鼎，三足两耳，和五味之宝器也。”有三足圆鼎，也有四足方鼎。早的鼎是黏土烧制的陶鼎，后来又有了用青铜铸造的铜鼎。传说夏禹曾收九牧之金铸九鼎于荆山之下，以象征九州，让人们警惕，防止被其伤害。自从有了禹铸九鼎的传说，鼎就从一般的炊器而发展为传国重器。国灭则鼎迁，夏朝灭，商朝兴，青铜器铜鼎，九鼎迁于商都亳（bó）京；商朝灭，周朝兴，九鼎又迁于周都镐（hào）京。
about the origin and function of "Ding": Ding was originally an ancient cooking utensil，铜鼎厂家， equivalent to the pot now， used for stewing and filling fish. Xu Shen said in Shuowen Jiezi: "Ding， three feet and two ears， and five flavors of the treasure also." There are three-legged round tripod and four-legged square tripod. The earliest tripod was pottery tripod made of clay， and later bronze tripod. Legend has it that Xia Yu once took Jiu Mu"s gold and cast Jiu Ding under Jingshan Mountain to symbolize Jiuzhou， so that people are alert to avoid being hurt by it.

When the state was destroyed， Ding moved， Xia Dynasty was destroyed，铜鼎香炉， Shang Dynasty was prosperous， Jiuding moved to the capital of Shang Du Bo (b); when the Shang Dynasty was destroyed， Zhou Dynasty was prosperous， and Jiuding moved to the capital of Zhou Du Ho (h o).
