A Study on the Archaeological Culture of the Early Iron Age in the Samon Valley,Myanmar

近20年来,考古工作者在缅甸萨蒙河流域调查并发掘了20余处墓地。这批墓葬文化面貌单纯,内涵一致,可以命名为"育瓦丁文化"。该文化分布于萨蒙河流域,年代为公元前一千纪后半叶。该文化的发现与确认,有助于推动缅甸早期文化序列的构建,对深入理解中缅印早期的文化交流具有重要意义。

Over the past 20 years,archaeologists have investigated and excavated more than 20 cemeteries along the Samon Valley in Myanmar."Ywa Htin culture"was named since this batch of cemeteries culture was simple in appearance and consistent in connotation.The culture was distributed along the Samon River Basin,dating to the second half of the millennium B.C.The discovery and confirmation of this culture will contribute to promote the construction of the early cultural sequence in Myanmar and will bridge the in-depth understanding of the early cultural exchanges among China,Myanmar and India.
