石家庄市后太保元代史氏墓群发掘简报

Excavation of Shi’s Familial Cemetery at Houtaibao,Shijiazhuang

后太保村位于石家庄市西北约3公里处,石太高速公路从村北穿过。为了配合国家重点工程的建设,1992年春,河北省文物研究所石太考古队对河北境内的公路沿线进行了详细的实地调查,后太保史氏家族墓地就是在调查中发现的。据后太保一带村民反映,元朝丞相史天泽墓就在后太保村北一带公路线上。

Located at Houtaibao village 3 km. northwest of Shijiazhuang City, the cemetery belonged to the family of Shi Tianze,a prime minister of the Yuan dynasty. Archaeologists excavated eight of the tombs in 1993. These tombs are structurally different ,anging from the stone coffin-chamber,square brick single-chamber to hexagonal,octagonal or rectangular multi-chamber one. The funerary objects include porcelain, gold, silver, bronze, glass, jade,bone,agate and iron. The tomb occupant of M4,according to the epitaph unearthed, was Shi Tianze's forth son,Shi Gang,who had served as a high-ranking local official and was buried in the third year of the Yanyou reign. The epitaph provides a tangible clue to the ownership of the cemetery.
