2018—2020年偃师商城小城北城墙发掘简报

The Excavation of the Northern Wall of the Inner Enclosure,Yanshi Shang city,from 2018 to 2020

2018年—2020年,为探寻偃师商城小城北门,中国社会科学院考古研究所河南第二工作队对偃师商城小城北墙中段和西段进行了发掘。发掘表明:疑似的小城北门位于小城北墙正中处;小城墙外没有防卫意义上的护城壕;小城北墙的始建年代不晚于偃师商城第2段,在第3段后开始废弃。墙体存续至第6段,与商城遗址一同废弃,但是墙体到汉代才逐渐湮没于地下;小城北墙两侧还发现有二里头文化的遗存,小城北墙南侧发现有东周至汉代的遗存。本次发掘为小城时期偃师商城布局和聚落形态变迁的探讨奠定了基础。

From 2018 to 2020,in order to explore the north gate of the inner city of the Yanshi Shang city,the Second Team of Henan of the Institute of Archaeology,Chinese Academy of Social Sciences excavated the middle and west sections of the north wall of the inner city.Excavations showed that the suspected north gate of the Inner city is located in the middle of the north wall;there is no defensive moat outside the north wall of the inner city;the north wall of the inner city was built no later than the phaseⅡof Yanshi Shang city,and began to be abandoned after the phaseⅢ,When the wall still survived to the phaseⅥ,it was abandoned together with the Shang city site.However,the city was gradually ruined until the Han Dynasty;the distribution of Erlitou culture was also found on both sides of the north wall of the inner city,and the remains of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to the Han Dynasty were found on the south side of the north wall of the inner city.This excavation laid a foundation for the discussion the changes of the composition and settlement patterns in the earlier period of Yanshi Shangcity.
