河南新乡市北站区汉墓

Han Tombs in Beizhan District,Xinxiang,Henan

新乡市北站区距市区10公里，是战国、两汉墓葬聚集地。1956年至今，已发掘墓葬千余座。2001年3月，为配合火电厂改建工程，新乡市文物工作队在此发掘17座汉墓。这些墓葬分布在火电厂所属的烟囱工地（M1～M12）（图一），碎煤机工地（M13），水泵房工地（M14～M16）和排水管工地（M17）范围内。以下报道的是这17座墓葬的全部资料。

In 2001, the Xinxiang Municipal Archaeological Team, Henan Province, excavated 17 tombs of the Han period in Beizhan District, Xinxiang City. Of these tombs, three are medium-sized brick-chambered graves with ramping tomb-passages, and the rest are all small-sized earthen-cave burials with shafts. No intrusion into each other was discovered among the tombs. The funeral objects include mainly pottery, and bronze, iron and stone artifacts were found in a small number. The tomb shapes and object combinations suggest that the earthen-cave graves belong to the early or middle Western Han period, while the brick-chambered ones all to the middle and late Eastern Han, and the tomb-owners to the middle and lower social strata.
