22, Explored and explore the work after beginning the archaeological studies.
Through the efforts over 1 month, have already made the rich and important
achievement.
Over one month, the small bay in a river ruins explore area
exceed 1,500 square meters already( original agreement stipulate as 1,000 square
meters). Visit square culture layer can divide 10 into at most , can be divided
into 4 layers at least. Era can reach on the the Eastern Zhou Dynasty is
successively for Han dynasty, six in the following towards, Sui the Tangs, Zh
Zh, Ming and Qing dynasty. Explore degree of depth up to 2.10 is most shallow to
up to 0.60 meters deeply most.
The small bay in a river ruins in the archaeological studies
investigation, judge it for the remains of Han dynasty. But through exploring
this time, find the takenning the place of in one's early years and be pushed to
the Eastern Zhou Dynasty the most of this ruins, This have times to insert sand
red pottery Zhyuan foot, insert thick thick rope line and net line red
gallipot,etc. relic but card of sand the Eastern Zhou Dynasty not merely, Also
explored and cleared up culture story of the times and contemporary gray hole in
the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
Six room location towards the times is another achievement in
this archaeological studies explore . Clear up and appear 7 and several contain
stone post hole of stone base of column, belong to wooden bone mud wall building
altogether. Although not mostly complete, have found some archaeological studies
phenomena with cultural characteristics . If 99CWWF1 room location inhabit
surface process right away very rare: Namely outer fringe most in way, have one
row round rammer nest , should belong to the flat rammer , But afterwards to
inhabit surface use oblique rammer, Last pieces of rammer nest pigeonhole go
half later rammer nest , form neat form rammer nest of fish scale very, Very
characteristic; In indoor corner, because rammer play inconvenient perhaps, so
oblique to seem to rammer nest a bit in a mess. 99CWWF5 whether one keep intact
one row three type room location for another example: China have two north and
south separate three to partition wall one house, first of centre minimum, There
is way southwards, it should be the entrance hall ; After entering the entrance
hall, the things each have open eastwards, west room two of gates . Leave only
sections of cob wall of although 99CWWF7 and stone post hole of the stones base
of column will be included to each,find room pieces of getting more intact one
with braising by soil rectangle kitchen pool where the stub walls enclose as in
soy sauce, Have charcoal bits and braise in soy sauce soil fragment is
relatively rare even inside.
The most important discovery is to explore and clear up the
soil hole tombs of the times for two periods of the Eastern Han Dynasty. The Han
dynasty grave that Sanxia area find in the past is mostly brick room tomb and
precipice tomb, The hole tomb of soil is rare . The small bay in a river two
soil hole tomb of ruins, tomb carry collapsed already, the coffin chamber is
with considerable scale, The tomb wall is high-visible. People skeleton of tomb
keep basically intact one, this archaeological studies more rare too of
exploring in Han dynasty, Have offered the valuable material object materials
for anthropolgical research of the physique. People bone of tomb excavate
phenomenon , give somebody mysterious complicated and confusing reverie very
even more one. Should say people skeleton of tomb afford to keep one, The a
piece of bone departments all lack. And then here from the south of 0.65 meters
of skulls, explored out a pair of arm bones( other skeletons have already
totally been corroded ). Pass and observe carefully, graveyard layer have and
sink phenomenon, skull and like this abnormal position of arm bone one, It
should be that the stratum misplace and causes yet. After clearing up and
explore further, find that it is a big pottery basin under the skulls of people,
That is to say that this number of people is put within a pottery basin. In view
of the above, can infer , this number of people was conduct first grade for use
in ones that offered sacrifices to.
Still unearthed three iron sword of corrosion around size 2
skeleton, people of tomb,( knife), one copper seal, Whether one piece stone
ornament,pieces of copper ring and how much stone( bone? )Pearl . It is
estimated that the tomb owner may be a military head .
The small bay in a river two the the Eastern Han Dynasty hole
room of ruins tomb still unearthed a large number of pottery. According to the
incomplete statistics, the intact, basically intact or replaceable pottery has
already exceeded 40, Many pottery device type huge among them, and a lot of
pottery decorated with getting red or the white color is painted , It is very
bright-colored and beautiful that the especially red color is painted . The
devices are quite abundant too, there are pot, cauldron, pot, pot, basin,
earnestly, bowl, rice steame, urn, storehouse, light,etc.. Some potteries are
still decorated with beast's shape of face knocker-holders. While excavate with
the pottery , still find that is mixed with having a large number of animals
skeleton, Cherish and corrode serious , distinguish species is but should for
offer sacrifices to and use domestic animal.
That excavated with pottery together is to become copper cash
of bunch or the fragmentary ancient unit of weight, equal to 1/24 liang five of
Chinese separately, Especially become ancient unit of weight, equal to 1/24
liang five of bunch money, still find around that there is mark of offering as a
gift burnt. According to observe tentatively by five ancient unit of weight,
equal to 1/24 liang money to Chinese, span of era its relatively heavy, the
early ancient unit of weight, equal to 1/24 liang five while getting in the
Western Han Dynasty early, By the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty at night.
Size 1 tomb unearthed copper wash one also; All kinds of iron
cauldron each one, small iron cauldron put within the cauldron, big iron
cauldron put in one having at the red pottery shelf that color paints on big
iron among them.
At present, two clearance of tomb of Han dynasty explore and
work and continue being carried on yet.
