云南西部洱海区域南诏时期诸城址功能性质的分类归纳

A Classification of Nanzhao's Ancient Town Remains in the Erhai Lake Area

本文所说的洱海区域指的是云南省西部的洱海坝子及其南面附近的巍山坝子、弥渡坝子等。这一区域是南诏政权的发源地、京畿地区和统治中心,也是南诏政权能实施有效统治的地区。为此,南诏政权在这一地区构筑了至今仍有遗迹可寻的近十座城址,其密集程度可谓空前绝后,充分说明该区域对南诏政权的重要性。

There are nearly ten ancient town remains in the Erhai Lake area.They have different functions and features,and can be divided into five categories:capital towns,military towns for defensive use,family temple towns,towns for house arrest and feudal towns.According to the locations,they can be divided into three kinds:capital town severed as political,cultural and economic center;military works for guarding the capital town;and towns as rear bases.No matter how to classify them,they share the same purpose:to solid the power of Nanzhao King- dom to ensure the rulers' ease and comfort.The purpose did come true.
