在应对自然和社会危机的过程中,东山村遗址凭藉区位优势和历史积累成为区域性的权力中心,崧泽文化早、中期社会发生了明显的等级分化。聚敛财富、军事权威、祖先崇拜和礼制观念在东山村遗址的崛起和维持过程中发挥了不同的作用,是崧泽文化早、中期社会权力的主要来源。

Facing natural disasters and social upheaval,noticeable hierarchical differentiation happened during the early and middle Songze culture.The Dongshancun site became a regional center of power through its advantageous geographic position and long history of occupation.Rich grave goods and indicators of social stratification such as the assemblage of stone yue ceremonial axes,wide-mouthed vats and jade objects were unearthed from independent high-ranking burial area,suggesting the upper social class had controlled great wealth,accessed power and solidified stratification through military,ceremonial and sumptuary ways.Different sources of this sudden rise and emergence of social power during the early and middle Songze culture period of Dongshancun society are indicated by social wealth,military authority,ancestral worship,and sumptuary ideology.
