“从者”是汉代社会中普遍存在且数量不菲的一种群体身份的称谓。从汉简记载可知，“从者”是吏士等私人所雇佣的随从，故而又常被称为“私从者”或“私从”。“从者”多以青少年为主，具有户籍，可拥有爵位，是国家的编户民。“从者”以协助雇主完成公私事务为职事，并经常随从其一起因公差旅、参与各种具体事务的处理，有效地促进了行政效率和质量的提高。在边塞屯守系统中，“从者”被视为戍吏的家属成员，由政府统一配给廪食。对“从者”的探析，有助于更全面地分析边郡屯戍人口的构成与了解汉代社会关系与社会结构。

“Congzhe” refers to a common group of people because they often acted as attendants employed privately by officials and scholars, also known as “Si congzhe” or “Si cong.” Most of them are youths who had permanent domiciles and could have a title of nobility. They were written into the household register. They not only assisted their employers in finishing their official or private business, but also traveled with their employers and participated in the management of different affairs, thus effectively improving the efficiency and quality of administrative work. In the frontier garrisons, “congzhe” refers to soldiers’ family members, and they got supplies from the government. This study will help better understand the composition of the frontier population and its social structure in the Han Dynasty.
