寻找消失的文明——良渚外围水利系统发现记

The Discovery of Dam System in Liangzhu-a Culture Disappeared

良渚外围水利系统分为塘山长堤、低坝系统和高坝系统三个部分。它的发现与初步研究证实良渚古城的宫殿、内城、外城的三重结构之外,还包括一个规模宏大的水利系统,控制面积达100平方公里。是继2007年良渚古城之后,良渚考古的又一次重大突破。良渚外围水利系统从初见端倪到局部了解,直至整体格局的揭露,经历了两代考古人近30年的漫长历程。

The recently excavated water system outside the Liangzhu city consists of three parts:the high and low dams,and Tangshan levee.This excavation has proved that the Liangzhu ancient city was surrounded by an enormous waterway system which covered around 100 km^2.Moreover,it also confirmed that the ancient city was a three-circled structure,with the palace in the central,then inner city and outer city.It took almost thirty years for the researchers and archaeologists to uncover the whole picture of this site,and this discovery is dubbed as another breakthrough after the excavation of the Liangzhu ancient city in 2007.
