山东平阴县周河遗址东周遗存发掘简报

The Excavation of the Eastern Zhou Remains at Zhouhe Site in Pingyin County,Shandong

周河遗址位于山东省平阴县洪范池镇周河村北浪溪河支流的高台地上,南距洪范池镇约1公里(图一)。1981、1987年,济南市文化局、平阴县博物馆曾对浪溪河区域进行过两次大规模调查,发现了包括周河在内的42处古代遗址[1]。1999年4~6月,为开展田野考古实习,山东大学考古学与博物馆学系、济南市文化局文物处对周河遗址进行了发掘。发掘时以遗址中部的电线杆为总基点,将发掘区分为四区,共布5米×5米探方29个、5米×3米探沟3条(T3102、T3103、T4008)、5米×2米探沟4条(T2001、T2002、T4006、T4007)、10米×2米探沟1条(T4005)、6.5米×3米探沟1条(T3104),总发掘面积849.5平方米。

In 1999,Pingyin Zhouhe Site Archaeological Team excavated the Zhouhe Site,from which a group of features of the Eastern Zhou Period were recovered,including house foundations,ash pits,ash ditches,water wells,burials,etc.,and artifacts including pottery wares,bone and stone implements,cowries,etc.were unearthed.Of the excavated six burials of the Spring-and-Autumn Period,the M5,M6 and M10 were that of the mid Spring-and-Autumn Period and M2,M3 and M7 were that of the late Spring-and-Autumn Period.Most of the burials had second-tier ledges in the grave,and some of them were also featured with waist pits in the bottom and recesses on the walls of graves.The pottery assemblage included li-cauldron,dou-stemmed bowl,jar,yu-basin,gui-tureen,etc.The analyses to this site showed that it was a settlement site of the Lu Culture of the Spring-and-Autumn to early Warring-States Periods under the influence of the Qi Culture.The excavation of this site provided new data for the studies on the settlement patterns,handicraft techniques,lifestyles,cultural convergences and territory changes of the Qi and Lu States during the Eastern Zhou Period.
