论秦汉时期黄河流域的“竹林”多为“经济作物”——兼评王子今、陈业新两位先生的争论

Most of the Bamboo Was the Economic Crop in the Yellow River Basin at the Time of Qin and Han Dynasties——Concurrent comment on the argument of Wang Zijin and Chen Yexin

对于秦汉时期黄河流域的竹林究竟是"经济作物"还是"自然植被",王子今和陈业新两位先生有着不同的意见。秦汉时期黄河流域仍有自然生长的竹子,但大部分竹林已是经济作物。这些作为经济作物的竹林并不是从江南地区移植过来的,而是自然之竹在人口压力和人们的书写需求刺激下自然而然转变成的。从秦汉时期黄河流域的"竹林"由"自然植被"转变成"经济作物"的原因与过程以及关中地区竹子仍大范围生长的事实皆可见当时黄河流域的气候要比现在温暖湿润。

Wang Zijin and Chen Yexin had a different viewpoint about the bamboo being economic crop or natural vegetation in the Yellow River basin at the time of Qin and Han Dynasties. Although there was a little natural bamboo, but most of it was economic crop in Yellow River basin at the time of Qin and Han Dynasties.This bamboo as economic crop wat not transplanted from regions south of the Yangtze River, but it transformed from the local natural bamboo as for the pressure of people population and the stimulation of people＇ s writing requirement. We can conclude that the climate in the Yellow River basin at the time of Qin and Han dynasties was much warmer and moister than it was now from the reason and the process of the transition of the bamboo from natural vegetation to economic crop.In addition, the fact that the bamboo grew largely in guanzhong also prove it.
