山西大同市大同县陈庄北魏墓发掘简报

A Tomb of the Northern Wei in Chenzhuang,Datong,Shanxi

2010年4月,山西省考古研究所与大同市考古研究所在山西大同市大同县瓜园乡陈庄村东的高坡地段联合发掘了一座长方形斜坡墓道双砖室墓。此墓出土陶器、铁器、铜器、金器、石器、木器、漆器等40余件,并在墓室内发现彩绘壁画。根据壁画内容和器物特征分析,此墓的年代为北魏时期。

In April, 2010, a collaborative archaeological team carried out an excavation of a tomb （dubbed 2010PIGSM1） in the east of Chenzhuang Village, Datong County, Datong City, Shanxi Province. It is a double-chamber brick tomb with a long sloping rectangular passage. More than 40 burial objects were unearthed, including objects of pottery, iron, bronze, gold, stone, wood, and lacquer. Some mural paintings were discovered in the tomb chambers. Judging by the mural paintings and the burial objects, this tomb was built in the Northern Wei period. Survey and exploration show that there are quite a few additional tombs around this one; some are north-south oriented tombs, while others are east-west oriented tombs. These tombs must have belonged to different families buffed in the same period, and we conclude that this area was a large graveyard in the late Northern Wei.
