羊舞岭文化遗存试析

An Analysis on the Yangwuling Cultural Site

羊舞岭文化遗存是近年来发现的一个新的文化类型,主要分布于南洞庭湖区和资水中下游地区。该遗存出土了一批有特色的文化遗物,这些遗物既具有石家河文化晚期的特点,又有二里头文化的某些因素。这一文化局面的形成,可以从历史传说尧、舜、禹南征三苗,舜葬九嶷中去追溯渊源,是二里头文化向南推进的结果。遗存的年代可能在新石器时代末期与早期商文化之间,是一处具有明显特点的区域文化类型。

The Yangwuling site represents a newly-discovered cultural type,mainly distributed in the southern Dongting Lake and the middle and lower Zi River area.The relics from this site not only bear some characteristics of late Shijiahe Culture,but also contain a few factors from Erlitou Culture.This paper considers the formation of the site was the result of Erlitou Culture's expansion southward,which also supported by the historical legends of Yao,Shun,and Yu's conquest of Sanmiao,as well as Shun's being buried in Jiuyi.This site may be a typical local cultural type that existed between the end of Neolithic time and early Shang Dynasty.
