陕西西安清凉山秦墓发掘简报

Preliminary Report on the Excavation of Qin Tombs at Qingliangshan in Xi’an,Shaanxi

2018~2019年,西安市文物保护考古研究院等在西安市长安区清凉山发掘秦墓549座,出土各类器物近2000件(组)。该墓地处于杜地核心区,所代表族群比较复杂,等级不高,但管理有序,遗物风格具有楚文化因素,时代在战国中晚期至秦统一之间,是一处经过规划的多元文化因素并存的非典型秦墓地,体现了秦务实、开放、包容的文化特征。

In 2018-2019,the joint archaeological team led by the Xi’an Municipal Institute of Cultural Relics Conservation and Archaeology excavated 549 Qin tombs at the Qingliangshan cemetery.The excavation yielded a large number of artifacts,close to 2000 pieces.This cemetery is located at the core area of the so-called Du ting county.Material evidence also shows a complex ethnic affiliation of the tomb owners.These burials belong to medium-lower rank members of the society,and the overall layout of the cemetery shows a careful planning beforehand.In addition,some remains present cultural elements derived from the Chu state.Typologically,these burials date from the middle to late Warring States period to the period of Qin’s unification.The authors argue that this cemetery has been well planned and demonstrates various cultural elements of the time.While it is not a typical Qin cemetery,this new discovery illustrates the pragmatic,open and compatible nature of the Qin state.
