成周与王城考略

On,Chenzhou City and Wangcheng City

有关成周与王城的问题，诸如它们各自营建于何时，称谓出于何时，及其历史沿革等，史学界向有歧见。直至近代，研究者多是利用古文献，或者结合金文材料加以考证。随着新中国成立之后考古工作的快速发展，特别是近年来配合基本建设所开展的大量考古发掘工作，许多新的材料逐渐被认识，才真正使得成周与王城的有关问题得以廓清（图一）。

An integrated study of the location, historical evolution and other problems of Chengzhou and Wangcheng based on archaeological excavation data with literal records and bronze inscriptions taken into account affirms that the City of Luoyi built by Duke Zhou in the Western Zhou period is just the City of Chengzhou. It was located on the banks of the Chanshui River, where there was no ＂Wangcheng＂ at that time. In the Spring-and-Autumn period, the King Jingwang moved his capital to the place that is known today as the site of Han-Wei period Luoyang City and was called Easter Zhou Chengzhou after the event. The word ＂Wangcheng＂ came into being in the Spring-and-Autumn period; its location must have been the same as that of the Eastern Zhou Wangcheng by the present-day Jianhe River, but its layout is not clear yet. The resently discovered magnificent ruins of Eastern Zhou Wangcheng are actually the remains of Easern Zhou Wangcheng of the Warring States period.
