摘要
岔沟遗址是1980年秋我们在石楼调查时发现的。石楼县位于山西省的西部,滨临黄河,属吕梁地区。这里的黄土高原,由于长期的雨水侵蚀,被切割成一条条的沟壑,原面破碎,成为典型的沟壑峁梁地区。岔沟村现属石楼县城关公社所辖,在县城东约4公里。屈产河自东向西流迳县城,折向西北,注入黄河。
The Chagou site is situated on the slope of a hill on the northern bank of the GuchanRiver,about 4 km east of the Shilou County seat of Shanxi Province.It was discoveredduring the field survey in the autumn of 1980 and its excavation was begun in the springof next year.The remains unearthed at the site include 1 house of Yangshao culture,19 houses and 2 ash pits of Longshan culture,of which the Longshan relics are main find-The houses of Longshan culture are all of the type of cave dwellings.The main li-ving room is either rectangular with round corners or circular,about 4 or 5 m deep and 3to 4 m wide,with a rectangular or round hearth at the centre.The frontage of the livingroom is connected with a passage about 2 m in length leading to a door.The upper partsof the walls are some arched,showing that the top of the house is a dome.The floor andwalls of the interior are all plastered with lime.Owing to the long soil erosion,only a small amount of cultural relics were foundat the site.For pottery,only a few articles including li-tripods,guan-pots etc.have beenrestored.Sandy pottery is mostly decorated with cord impressions while fine clay potteryis mainly covered with basket pattern.White or red-and-white lines were also used aspainted motives,although only in rare cases.Cockcomb-shaped handle was then very po-pular and was found on the li and guan.According to these discoveries,it can be conclud-ed that this complex belongs to the culture Miaodigou Ⅱ.Radio-carbon dates of some samples of the floor and wall plaster show that the Long-shun culture complex at Chagou is about 2500——2300 B.C.
