试论石峁城址的选址

The Site Selection of Shimao City Site

本文首先对石峁城址的发掘、研究情况进行了梳理,指出石峁城址的选址具有一定的研究价值。通过对于史前环境的梳理,得出石峁城址所处时期气候环境不利于农业生产,石峁城址所处的地理环境也不利于农业生产。石峁城址选址于秃尾河河谷应该与古代物资交流通道有关。梳理石峁城址及周边遗址出土遗物可知,该通道主要承担古代西北地区与中原地区的玉器交流。这条通道早期处于延河河谷,芦山峁遗址是石峁城址皇城台的原型。随着西北地区制玉产业的衰落,石峁城址人群由于生存压力而南下,与陶寺人群产生了冲突。最后指出石峁城址作为依托交流通道兴起的古代大型城址,与其他早期文明一样,共同构成了中华文明的源头。

This paper firstly sorts out the excavation and research situation of Shimao city site,and points out that the site selection of Shimao city site has certain research value.By sorting out the prehistoric environment,it is concluded that the climatic and geographical environment of the Shimao city site are not conducive to agricultural production.The site of Shimao City is located in the Tuweihe River Valley.The site selection of Shimao City should be related to the ancient material exchange channel.Combing the relics unearthed from the Shimao city site and surrounding sites,it shows that the passage was mainly responsible for the exchange of jade wares between the ancient northwest region and the Central Plains region.This passage was located in the Yanhe River Valley in the early periods,and the Lushanmao site was the prototype of the Huangchengtai at the Shimao City Site.With the decline of the jade making industry in the northwest region,the people at the Shimao city site went south under the pressure of survival and clashed with the Taosi people.Finally,it is pointed out that Shimao City Site,as an ancient large-scale city site that relied on transportation and trade,together with other early civilizations,constitute the source of Chinese civilization.
