宁乡铜器群与新干铜器群比较研究

本文从铜器内涵、文化面貌及与中原铜器的关系等方面对宁乡铜器群和新干铜器群进行比较后发现,两者结构上存在巨大差异(所含铜器年代跨度不同、主体年代或所属文化年代不同、铸造地复杂情况迥异),时间上不并行,文化传统上联系很少,与中原铜器关系的性质也不一样.因此,我们认为两者既不是商代晚期湘江流域和赣江流域同时并存的青铜文明,也不存在源流或继承关系.对于宁乡铜器群文化属性的判定,应该建立在对其所属考古学文化背景的深入研究之上,不能因为其与新干铜器群分布地域彼此毗邻或部分铜器年代接近而进行简单比照.

A Comparative Study of Bronze Assemblages between Ningxiang and Xin'gan

This paper examines in detail bronze assemblages of Ningxiang and Xin'gan and their cultural context in comparison with Central Plain bronze assemblages, and suggests that several enor- mous differences between Ningxiang and Xin'gan assemblages are apparent. These differences include the separate time-line, loss relationship of cultural traditions between the two regions, and especially dif- ferent natures and use of bronzes from that in Central Plain. Therefore, this suggest suggests that both of the bronz...
