古代开县建置沿革详考

A Research on the Evolution of the Administrative Districts of Ancient Kaixian

一部政区沿革史包含着县级政区和统县政区的因革,即县级政区和统县政区的析并废立、县级政区和统县政区的统辖关系的沿袭与演变以及政区地名的演化史。在整个政区沿革史中,与统县政区相比,县级政区沿革史处于基底。基于此,在爬梳排次相关正史方志等文献的基础上,文章对开县的建置沿革先作个案考察并绘制沿革示意图,先展示汉丰—开州—开县长达1 158年的建置沿革史,再从政区沿革史、区域经济开发和地名学三个方面阐发该个案的研究意义。

An evolutionary history of administrative districts usually contains the evolution of country-level-districts and Tongxian-level-districts, including establishing and abolishing, division and union of then, the evolution of governance relationship between the two types and the development of the area names of the administrative districts. Compared with the Tongxian-level-districts, the country-level-districts is more fundamental in the whole evolutionary history of the administrative districts. Therefore, taking Kaixian for example, this paper investigates the 1158-year administrative evolutionary history of Hanfeng, Kaizhou to Kaixian and draws a diagram of it. Finally, this investigation draws on many official historical materials and local chronicles concerned and tries to show its significance in three aspects: administrative evolutionary history, regional economical development and toponymy.
