A Study of Economic Development in Wuzhou during the Qin and Han Dynasties——Based on an Analysis of Archaeological Data

梧州市位于广西壮族自治区东部的西江、桂江、浔江三江汇合处。它历史悠久,是一座有着近2200年历史的岭南古城。从秦始皇开凿灵渠沟通长江水系和珠江水系之后,就开始奠定了梧州在岭南的重要经济地位。此后梧州经济迅速发展,成为广西经济发展较早的城市,是广西最早的商城之一。文章根据史籍和考古资料,对秦汉时代的梧州经济发展状况作初步的探讨。

Wuzhou,located in the eastern part of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region where the Xijiang River,the Guijiang River and the Xunjiang River meet,is a old city with a history of nearly 2200 years.After the First Emperor of Qin ordered to have the Ling Canal constructed,which connected the Yangtze River system with the Pearl River system,Wuzhou began to play an important role in the economy in southern China.From then on,with its rapid economic development,Wuzhou had gradually become an earlier-developed city of Guangxi and one of the earliest commercial cities of Guangxi.This paper,based on ancient books and archeological data,makes a preliminary study of the economic situation of Whzhou during the Qin and Han dynasties.
