随州文峰塔M1(曾侯與墓)、M2发掘简报

A Preliminary Excavation Report on Tomb M1(the Tomb of Marquis Yu of the Zeng State) and M2 of Wenfengta Cemetery in Suizhou

文峰塔墓地是随州厥水东岸义地岗墓群的一部分,2009年为配合工程建设,湖北省文物考古研究所、随州市博物馆在此抢救发掘了两座春秋墓葬(M1、M2)。根据墓葬规模和出土器物,特别是M1出土带有"曾侯與"铭文的编钟、铜鬲等,可确定该墓为春秋"曾侯與"墓。M2为积石墓,规模比M1稍大,被盗严重。本次发掘所获资料十分重要,尤其是"曾侯與"编钟铭文为研究曾国族属及曾随关系提供了重要论据。

Wenfengta Cemetery is a portion of Yidigang Burial Site of eastern Jue River region in Suizhou. Hubei Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology in collaboration with Suizhou Municipal Museum conducted the salvage excavation of Tomb M1 and M2 in 2009. The scale and artefacts unearthed indicate that Tomb M1 belonged to Marquis Yu of Zeng State in the Spring and Autumn period. This is especially evident from the inscriptions discovered on the bronze chime-bells and Li-cauldrons. Tomb M2 is a cairn tomb that's slightly larger in scale than M1, unfortunately it had been severely looted. The artefacts uncovered during this dig, especially the chime-bells of Marquis Yu of Zeng, are of great importance to the study of Zeng State clan system and the relationship between Zeng and Sui States.
