安徽蚌埠市双墩一号春秋墓葬

Tomb Shuangdun-1 of the Spring-and-Autumn Period in Bengbu City,Anhui

为带封土和阶梯式墓道的圆形竖穴土坑墓,发现了许多独特而复杂的遗迹现象。随葬品非常丰富,包括各类铜器、彩绘陶器、几何硬纹陶器、漆木器以及玉、石器等。铜器铭文表明墓主人应是"钟离国君柏",时代大致为春秋中晚期。此墓的发掘,为研究钟离国的历史以及淮夷文化的地域特征等提供了珍贵资料。

Tomb Shuangdun-1 was explored through a salvage excavation in 2006 to 2008. This is a round earthen pit with a flight-shaped short passage. A quantity of distinctive complex vestiges were brought to light, and very rich funeral objects were unearthed, among which are bronze chime-bells, vessels, weapons, horse-and-chariot trappings, post-firing-painted pottery objects and high-temperature ones with geometric patterns, a number of rotten lacquered artifacts, a group of dragon-head chime stones, and various fine jades. As known from the inscriptions on some bronzes, the tomb-owner must have been Bai, the ruler of the Zhongli State, who was entombed roughly in the mid and late Spring-and-Autumn period. The excavation evidenced further the existence of the Zhongli State in the middle Huaihe River valley and provided valuable material for researching into the history and pedigree of royal fatuity of the State and the regional features of the Huaiyi culture.
