浙江地区隋唐墓葬初探

A Preliminary Study of the Sui and Tang Tombs in Zhejiang Area

浙江地区地处长江下游,东靠海,西、南两面环山,北隔太湖与江苏毗邻,地理位置相对偏僻。春秋战国时期这里先后属于吴、越国地域,战国后期属楚。秦时分属会稽、鄣、闽中等郡。两汉时先后分属会稽、丹阳、吴等郡,均隶属扬州。六朝时又先后隶属扬州和东扬州。统一的隋朝建立后,本地区沿袭自南朝的一部分文化继续流行,另外一部分文化则很快被北来的中原文化所消融,并逐渐形成一种兼具统一性与地方性的新文化面貌,这在已有隋唐墓葬中多有体现。

Since the founding of People’s Republic of China,with the continuous excavations of tombs of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in Zhejiang area,the conditions for preliminary research on them have been basically met.In view of this,this paper firstly carried out a typological analysis of the shape of the tombs and the funerary objects,and then divided them into three periods:the Sui Dynasty to the early Tang Dynasty,the prosperous Tang Dynasty,and the middle and late Tang Dynasty based on other factors.Secondly,it summarized the unique regional characteristics of the tombs of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in this area through comparisons with the similar tombs around,and discussed the causes.We believe that it is closely related to the social and economic development,religious beliefs,and cultural exchanges with other places at that time.The material and cultural appearance reflected in the tomb is only a microcosm of the social life at that time.
