南京板桥新凹子两座西晋纪年墓

Two Dated Western Jin Tombs Discovered at Banqiao

2013年10月,南京市考古研究所为配合板桥街道板桥市场群建设,对项目用地B地块进行了考古勘探。B地块占地12万平方米,地处张家洼、新凹子两个自然村,共发掘战国至清代墓葬17座,窑址1座。其中在新凹子村发掘的2座西晋纪年墓,一为元康七年,一为永宁元年,墓葬形制保存完好,未被盗扰,出土陶瓷器、铜器、铁器等各类随葬品40余件。尤为重要的是,M8出土的纪年砖,载明墓主身份与卒葬年月,是近年来六朝墓葬考古的重要发现。M8出土的纪年砖与1960年代板桥石闸湖晋墓出土的同类纪年砖相比较,无论是文字还是纹饰均一致,为重新认识石闸湖晋墓墓主和墓葬用砖来源提供了新的材料。墓葬所在地板桥位于南京西南,是陆路与水路进入南京的交通要道。在此地发现的高级别身份墓葬,为研究南京地区六朝墓葬的地理分布、形制和葬俗提供了新的考古学资料。

In October 2013, the Nanjing Municipal Institute of Archaeology carried out an archaeological survey at block B in Zhangjiawa and Xin＇wazi villages, Banqiao, Nanjing, Jiangsu province. Block B covers an area of 120,000 square metres. Seventeen tombs from the Warring States period to the Qing dynasty and one kiln site have been excavated here. Two tombs dated to the Western Jin dynasty （one to the 7th year of Yuankang and the other the 1st year of Yongning [M8]） discovered in the Xin＇wazi village are well preserved and unrobbed. More than forty burial objects are excavated from these two tombs, including ceramics, bronzes and ironware. Bricks from M8 that record the tomb occupant＇s identity and date of the tomb are important findings in Six Dynasties tomb archaeology in recent years. These bricks are similar to those from a Jin dynasty tomb excavated in the 1960s at Shizhahu in inscription and decoration and therefore provide new clues to Shizhahu tomb occupant and the source of burial bricks. Banqiao, located in the southwest of Nanjing, is at a point that connects land and water routes to Nanjing. The discovery of high ranking tombs at Banqiao will provide new archaeological data for studying geographical distribution, typology and funeral customs of Six Dynasties tombs in Nanjing.
