明清时期淮安清口水利治理初探——以顺黄坝为例

A Disscussion on Huai'an's Water Resource Facilities and Management in the Ming-Qing Period:The Shunhuang Dam as A Case

淮安清口为黄、淮、运交汇口,是我国古代重要的漕运咽喉之地,明清两朝在此治理水利方面用力最多,修筑的水运水利工程设施亦最多,治黄、导淮、济运、通漕、减灾等一系列关键工程设施有机地构成了复杂的清口水利枢纽工程,做好清口水利治理的各项文献研究及考古工作对于运河申遗将起到极大的推动作用。

Qingkou, located in Huai＇ an, Jiangsu Province, is the place where the Yellow River, the Huai River, and the Grand Canal meet. It was a strategic site of water transportation in ancient China. The Ming-Qing period witnessed the most efforts being put into the management of the water resource at this area, which resulted in a good number of engineering facilities for water management. The major facilities including those for managing the Yellow River, the Huai River and the Grand Canal as well as those for facilitating water transportation or preventing flood constitute a comprehensive system of water resource in Qingkou. To conduct studies on Qingkou＇ s water management history may assert a great driving force for the application of the Grand Canal＇s World Heritage status.
