略论中国早期复合城市的形成

A Brief Review on the Formation of the Double City in Early China

20世纪90年代,徐苹芳先生在论述中国古代城市考古时,针对春秋战国时期形成的防御色彩浓厚的宫城加郭城的城市形态,提出了'两城制'的概念,认为'以社会阶层来划分居住区的两城制的城市规划,是东周城市的新特点'~①。杜正胜将这一时期城市的新变化称为中国第二次'城市革命'~②。

This article focused on the formation of the double city in early China.There followed a spirited discussion after Mr.Xu Pingfang’s paper on ancient China’s Double City published during 1990 s and great progress has been made since then.The author introduced the idea of composite city from modern urban planology and discussed the changed of city complex from Western Zhou to Eastern Zhou periods.By comparing different city complex unearthed in different areas of China,the author thought that the newly discovered Zhou city called Guanzhuang in Xingyang,Henan province played an important role in the development of double city.Based on this case,the author held the opinion that the formation of double city in ancient China dated back to the social changes from Western Zhou period.
