辽海地区先秦时期瓮棺葬浅析

Analysis of Urn Burials in the Pre-Qin Period in Liaohai Region

辽海地区先秦时期目前见诸报道的瓮棺墓计有七处,多集中分布于沈阳一带,少数分布于辽东半岛地区。按时间顺序看,这类墓葬最早见于夏家店下层文化堆积,出现原因应与黄河中下游文化向北辐射影响有关。从葬具类型上看,辽海地区先秦时期的瓮棺葬具多选“鼓腹类”器物。从这类墓葬周边其他遗迹的功能层面进行分析,辽海地区先秦时期瓮棺墓的内涵应与“设祀”有关。

To date,seven urn tombs from the pre-Qin period in the Liaohai area have been reported.The majority of these tombs are concentrated in the Shenyang area,with a few located in the Liaodong Peninsula.Chronologically,these tombs were initially discovered within the Lower Xiajiadian culture deposits,suggesting a connection to the northward expansion of the culture in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River.Analysis of burial tools reveals that a significant portion of these urn coffins had a distinctive"Bulging belly"shape.Examining the contextual significance of artifacts surrounding these tombs,it is inferred that the urn coffin tombs in the pre-Qin period in the Liaohai area were associated with ceremonial"Sheji"practices.
