山西隰县瓦窑坡墓地的两座春秋时期墓葬

The Excavation of two Burials of the Spring-and-Autumn Period at the Wayaopo Cemetery in Xixian County,Shanxi

瓦窑坡墓地M29和M30均为长方形土坑竖穴墓,葬具均为一椁两棺,出土遗物有青铜器、玉器、石器、骨器、海贝和漆器等。这两座墓是目前晋南地区所见等级最高的春秋中期墓葬,对研究晋南地区春秋墓葬的等级变化、侯马铸铜作坊兴起之前晋国的铸铜技术等均有重要意义。

In 2005, Linfen Municipal Bureau of Cultural Relics and other institutions conducted rescue excavation to the Wayaopo Cemetery on the loess terrace to the north of Xixian County, Shanxi. The M29 and M30 were the largest burials recovered in this excavation, both of which were vertical earthen shaft pit burials in rectangular plan. The grave goods unearthed from these burials included bronzes, jades, stone and bone implements, cowries, lacquered wares, etc. the bronze vessels were ding-tripods, gui-tureens, fu-vessels, licauldrons, dou-stemmed bowls, pots,pan-basins, yi-pourers, zhou-bowls, basins, ladles, etc., musical instruments were bronze chime bells and chime stones. These two burials were the highest-ranking burials of the mid Spring- and-Autumn Period found in southern Shanxi to date, which are significantly meaningful for the studies on the changes of the ranks of the burials of the mid Spring-and-Autumn Period in southern Shanxi and the bronzecasting technique before the flourishing of the Houma Bronze Foundry Sites.
