良渚与中国百年考古——被低估的中国新石器时代

Liangzhu and Centennial Archaeology:The Underestimated Neolithic Age in China

1921年河南渑池县仰韶村的发现标志着中国现代考古学的开端,如今考古学在中国走过了整整100年的时间,中国考古事业与中华民族百年共进。在一代代考古人的辛勤耕耘中,考古学获得了持续的成长与发展,为中国历史和文化建设做出了巨大贡献。考古学在当代具有重要的现实意义,考古探索工作不仅限于对过去的发现,更在于在当下语境中凝望历史的所感所思。新时代的中国考古学致力于将此学科精神融入到文化建设和社会生活当中,温故而知新。良渚考古经过了80多年探索发现的历程,从20世纪70年代至80年代末,陆续发现了许多以随葬玉器为主的良渚文化大墓,琮、璧等玉礼器以及墓葬等级的差异反映了其社会的发达程度。2007年发现良渚古城,2015年确认水利系统,从而将良渚文化推进到了国家文明的高度,2019年良渚古城遗址被列为世界遗产。
