走廊之前的走廊:新石器时代与先秦时期的桂东北

Corridor before Corridor:Northeast Area of Guangxi in Neolithic and Pre-Qin Periods

桂东北越城岭地区作为南岭走廊的重要组成部分,在史前和先秦时期已表现出文化交汇地带和文化传播通道的特质。新石器时代中晚期,长江流域的稻作文化由此传入岭南,彻底改变了岭南地区狩猎采集的经济面貌。先秦时期,这里一直是西瓯等政体与中原王朝交流合作的前沿地带,在考古学上留下了大量遗迹。事实证明,桂东北地区的民族走廊作用并不仅仅局限在秦汉以后,在此之前这条走廊已经长期存在。

Yuecheng Mountains in the northeast part of Guangxi are important parts of Nanling Corridor and have been playing significant cultural roles as the integration and communication of culture since prehistory period and appeared many characters as cultural exchanged areas and communicated channels. Rice agriculture from Yangtze Rive had been brought into Lingnan Area through the Corridor in Middle and Late Neolithic period, which had changed the hunting and foraging economy there. Many archaeological discoveries suggest that the corridor was the frontier where Xiou polity had interacted with dynasties in Zhongyuan area. Many evidences indicates that the history of the corridor in Northeast Guangxi has been more than six thousand years.
