In 1997, excavation was carried out in Area I of the site. The Tang and later cultural layers excavated this time are largely related to agrecultural activities, though a part of them were found to be flood-left silt layers. In the fifth, ninth and fourteenth strata, many remains can be linked with rice cultivation, including extensive paddy fields, ridges, water outlets, remains of green paddy, human footprints and ox-hoof impressions. They go back, respectively, to Tang-Song times, the mid Ming to early Qing, and the Qing period. In addition, Various porcelain articles and a small number of pottery vessels, bronzes and irons were unearthed from different layers of paddy fields.展开更多

A large-scale rescuing excavation was carried out there in 1997-1998. The work resulted in the revelation of house-foundations, ash-pits, tombs, drainage ditches, pot-tery-making kilns, fireplaces and paddy fields, and the discovery of pottery, stone, bone, bronze, iron and porcelain objects in a great number. As the Eastern Zhou and Han tombs and the Tang, Song, Ming and Qing paddy fields have been published, the present paper deals with the other remains from the Shang-Zhou to the Six Dynasties periods and studies their periodization.展开更多
