【Abstract】 The Zaoshi site lies on the first terrace on the northern bank of the Dieshui River, a tributary of the Fengshui River. It was excavated in a total area of 1400 sq m in late 1977—early 1978 and the winter of 1981. The site comprises cultural remains of the early Neolithic, the Shang and the Eastern Zhou, of which the Shang complex is published completely in the present report.The stratigraphic evidence and associations of objects indicate that the Shang remains at Zaoshi can be divided into three periods. Those of rite second period correspond to the upper part of the Erligang site in the Central Plains. The first period is somewhat earlier than Period H and is directly followed by the latter in time, but there is too little evidence to confirm whether it is as early as lower layers of Erligang. Period Ⅲ is separated from Period Ⅱ by a gap and corresponds roughly to Phases Ⅰ and Ⅱ of the Yin Ruins in the Central Plains.The Shang remains at Zaoshi display a complex cultural aspect. The pottery vessels can be divided into three groups as shown by examination of their forms, decorations and wares.The first group includes li tripods with pocket-shaped legs and separated crotches, jue goblets, jia tripods with a handle, large-mouthed zun beaker, etc., all coming from the Central Plains; the second group, dou stemmed vessels with a false belly and gui food containers, both transformed Central Plains types; the third group, fu caudrons(ding, tripods) bowl-shaped dou, bowls with a serrate-rimmed ring-foot and pots with a long, trumpet-shaped mouth, all characteristic of the local cultural complex. The quantitative proportion of these groups is 1:2.2:12. The third group of pottery is seen from the early through the late period and predominates in the Shang material remains of the site, making the Zaoshi cultural complex different from the other variations of the Shang culture.更多还原
