从峡江地区楚文化遗存看东周时期巴楚关系的变化

过去学术界认为楚文化西界止于巴东,巴楚交界于巫山。然近年来峡江地区所发掘出的楚文化遗存却显示楚人在战国中期已到达云阳、忠县等地,生动地再现了东周时期巴楚关系的变化。二者之间关系的变化,是由政治目的和经济利益决定的。

Previous studies maintain that the western border of the Chu culture ends in Badong, and Ba and Chu march with Wushan. However, the recent archaeological discoveries indicate that the Chu people had reached Yunyang and Zhongxian in the middle Warring States period. This evidence demonstrates the change in the relationship between Ba and Chu. Such a change may have resulted from their political purpose and economic benefit.
