The present invention is directed to a dielectric ceramic composition exhibiting a high unloaded quality factor and a small variation thereof. The dielectric ceramic composition of the invention containing Ba, Zn, and Ta, contains 100 parts by weight of a predominant component represented by xBaO-yZnO-(½)zTa2O5 (x, y, and z represent compositional proportions by mol and satisfy x+y+z=1), wherein x, y, and z fall within a quadrilateral region formed by connecting points A (x=0.503, y=0.152, z=0.345), B (x=0.497, y=0.158, z=0.345), C (x=0.503, y=0.162, z=0.335), and D (x=0.497, y=0.168, z=0.335) (sides AB, BD, DC, and CA being included) as shown in FIG. 1; 0.2-1.6 parts by weight K as reduced to K2O; and 0.7-8 parts by weight Ta as reduced to Ta2O5, wherein the ratio by weight of K to Ta falls within the range of 0.185-0.4. The dielectric resonator of the present invention is formed of the dielectric ceramic composition.
