东周社会研究中考古学的使用

The Application of Archaeology in Eastern Zhou Social Studies

东周社会研究是中国古代史研究的重要领域之一,基于文献的历史学研究与考古学独立进行的研究,都各自贡献了大量研究成果。在此类研究中,对考古学的使用往往更为看重其所提供的原始资料,但对其研究成果关注相对较少,这是考古学的学科特性所致。在东周社会中更为高效地使用考古材料与研究成果,需要寻求建立更为适用的高级理论作为总体框架,以保证使用不同材料与方法的研究成果之间能够相互校验。

Social research of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is one of the important fields of ancient Chinese history research.Both the literature-based historical research and the independent research of archaeology have contributed a lot of research results. In this kind of research,the application of archaeology often pays more attention to the original data it provides,but pays less attention to its research results,which is due to the disciplinary characteristics of archaeology. To use archaeological materials and research results more efficiently in Eastern Zhou society,it is necessary to seek to establish a more applicable high-level theory as an overall framework to ensure that research results using different materials and methods can be verified with each other.
