《水经注》关于“云中宫”位置记载的文本分析及地望考辨

On the Location of“Yunzhong Palace”in Shujingzhu

云中宫是北魏开国时期明元帝拓跋嗣的出生地,其位置在盛乐地区,但《魏书》未予明确记载。《水经注》依照《魏土地记》“云中宫在云中县故城东四十里”的描述,认为云中宫在云中城与成乐城之间。本文辨析《水经注》的文本来源,结合实地考古调查,认为云中宫在云中城东北四十里、位于今大黑河南岸的北魏后朱堡烽戍所在地。

Yunzhong Palace was the birthplace of Emperor Mingyuan Tuoba Si during the founding of the Northerm Wei Dynasty,and its location in the Shengle is not clearly recorded in Weishu.Shuijingzhu follows the description in Weitudiji that“Yunzhong Palace was forty miles east of the old city of Yunzhong County”,and considers that it was between Yunzhong City and Chengle City.This paper identifes the textual sources of Shuijingzhu and combines with archaeological investigations,suggesting that Yunzhong Palace was located forty miles northeast of Yunzhong City,at the site of Houzhubao Beacon Tower of Northern Wei Dynasty on the south of the Dahei River today.
