廪君巴人发源地“武落钟离山”新考——兼论“赤、黑二穴”在长阳柳山

A New Textual Research into "Wuluozhongli Mountain" Place of Origin of Linjun Ba People And a Discussion about the View that "the Red and Dark Caves" Are in Liu Mountain, Changyang

《后汉书·南蛮西南夷列传》记载:早期五姓巴人"出于武落钟离山,其山有赤、黑二穴。"《辞海》记载:巴人"周以前居武落钟离山(今湖北长阳西北)一带,廪君为著名领袖。"[1]廪君巴人的发源地"武落钟离山(又称难留山)"、"赤、黑二穴"在不在湖北长阳?在长阳什么地方?学术界有过争论。2004年9月,我们通过田野调查,对比历史文献与考古报告,认为长阳西部的柳山是武落钟离山,柳山的榨洞与虎洞是赤、黑二穴。

Academic circles once argued whether the origin of Linjun Ba people was in 'Wuluozhongli Mountain (another name is Nanliu Mountain), and whether 'the Red and Dark Caves' are situated in Changyang, Hubei. Our field work and a research into historical literature archeological reports reveal that Changyang and Hu Cave are 'the Red and Dark Caves'.
