从商王朝晚期对东方地区的经略看夷方地望

On the Location of Yifang from the Perspective of Late Shang Court’s Management of the Eastern Region

东方地区是商王朝晚期重点拓展和经营的区域。文化与殷墟文化关系密切,与当地文化二元对立;这里人口密集,聚落发展稳定,高等级聚落和来自殷都及周边地区的贵族与军队首领数量较多,驻扎在晚商文化分布区边界的醜、举、史等多个族氏还参与了征伐夷方战争。结合卜辞和商周金文的记录与相关研究,夷方地望应该在晚商文化分布范围以外、岳石文化后续文化的会泉庄与芝水二期等类型分布范围内。

The Eastern Region was an important region that the late Shang court focused on developing and managing.The culture of this area is closely related to the Yinxu Culture,which was opposed to local culture.This region had a dense population and enjoyed stable development of its settlements,with a number of high level settlements.This region also had a great many of aristocrats and army chiefs from the capital of Yin and its surrounding areas,of whom the Chou,Ju and Shi clans participated in the warfare of defeating Yifang.Combined with records in the oracle bone inscriptions and bronze vessel inscriptions of Shang and Zhou,the location of Yifang should beyond the core late Shang Culture and around Huiquanzhuang and the second phase of Zhishui culture,which were the subsequent cultures after Yueshi Culture.
