【摘要】 据不完全统计,明清西北筑城碑记大约存有269篇,其中原碑尚存于世者32方,是研究明清西北城池史宝贵的一手资料。甘、宁、青三省现存明代碑记最有特色,有大量卫所营堡的筑城碑保留。州县碑记大多有若干时段连续的拓城记,连缀起来就是城池形态扩展的整体叙事。明清西北筑城碑记所反映的城镇类型也多种多样,州县城镇最多,卫所营堡占有一定比例,其他如驿城、巡检司城、厅城、寨城、关城都有一部分存留,非常难得。这些碑记作为第一手资料,详述了筑城过程、工程耗时、销银数量、捐资人户,对于考证原委、制度复原、社会阶层以及城镇职能与形态扩张都有极重要的史料价值。更多还原

【Abstract】 According to incomplete statistics,there are about 269 city construction inscriptions in Northwest China of the Ming and Qing dynasties.Among them,32 original stelae still exist in the world,which are valuable first-hand materials for studying the history of cities.The city construction inscriptions of Gansu, Ningxia and Qinghai provinces are most distinctive among this type of inscriptions of the Ming dynasty,which retain a large number of Weisuo(military garrison units) and fortress building inscriptions.The state and county inscriptions mostly have several periods of successive records of city expansion,which are the overall narration of the expansion of city walls.Among all the contents of inscriptions,the state and county related are the most numerous,and the number of Weisuo and fortresses account for a certain proportion.Some other cities,such as post towns,fortress towns,are also preserved,even though the cases are very rare.As the first-hand materials,these inscriptions contain details of the process of city building,the time spent on the project,the amount of silver spent,and the number of donors,etc.These inscriptions are of great historical value for textual research on ancient city-building process,system restoration,social classes,and the expansion of urban functions and forms.更多还原
