2011年郑州大学考古系在河南省荥阳市高村乡官庄村西发现一处周代城址,2013年对该城址大城西北部进行发掘,面积为600平方米,发现了一批丰富的西周晚期至战国中期遗存,尤以大量的窖穴遗存最为重要。该区域可能为城址的仓储区。这些发现为进一步探讨官庄城址的布局、该地区的考古学文化面貌及郑韩两国对该区域的治理提供了新资料。
In 2011, the Archaeology Department of Zhengzhou University discovered a city-site of Zhou dynasty west to the Guanzhuang village, Gaoeun township, Xingyang city, Henan Province. In 2013, an excavation was conducted in the northwest section in the big enclosure of this city-site covering a 600 m2 area. During this excavation, a large number of remains date to the period from the late western Zhou dynasty to the middle of the warring states period were revealed including, especially important, lots of storage pits. Thus, it could be suspected that the storage area of this city may be unearthed. All these findings could increase our understandings on the layout of this city-site, the entire archaeological knowledge in this region, and the management strategies in the region carried out by the Zhen State and the Han State.
