东江文明起源地新论

New Views on the Origin of Dongjiang River Civilization

东江是珠江的重要支流,东江文明是珠江文明的重要组成部分,近年来关于东江文明的起源地问题的研究引起了国内学者的高度关注,但总体而言研究成果不丰富、研究观点不统一、争议颇多。从对历史、考古资料、文化风俗等方面的考证,东江文明起源地为河源龙川这一新观点不无道理。

The Dongjiang River is an important tributary of the Pearl River, Dongjiang River civilization is an important part of the Pearl River civilization. In recent years, research on the origin of Dongjiang River civilization has aroused great attention of domestic scholars. But generally the findings are not rich, research views not unified, and very controversial. From the evidence of historical and archaeological materials, cultural customs and other aspects of the research, the new views that the origin of Dongjiang River civilization lies in Longchuan, Heyuan is obviously reasonable.
