Research On The Settlement Patterns Of Yangshao Culture In The Upper Weihe River

As one of the important distribution areas of Yangshao culture,the upper Weihe River has a long cultural experience and rich cultural heritage,which has unique value in reflecting the life scenes of the ancestors of Yangshao.The excavated sites in this basin include the Dadiwan site,the Shizhao village site,the Xishanping site and the Wangjiayinwa site,among which the Dadiwan site is the most important.The Dadiwan site provides abundant materials in reflecting the functions of houses in the early,middle and late phases of the Yangshao culture,the internal structure and changes of the settlements,the transformation of the natural environment and the mode of production,and the abandonment mode of the site.The Wangjiayinwa site makes up for the lack of a complete tomb area in the upper reaches of the Weihe River.Based on the excavation data of these sites,this article uses the research methods of archeological stratigraphy,typology,and settlement archeology to study the settlement patterns of the Yangshao culture in the upper reaches of the Weihe River.At the same time,it uses the census data of cultural relics and the archaeological investigation of the basin.The data attempts to analyze and study the Yangshao cultural settlement.This article is divided into seven parts.The first part is the introduction,defining the research objects of this article,reviewing the archaeological investigation and excavation history of the Yangshao cultural remains in the upper reaches of the Weihe River,and briefly combing the archaeological practice and research on the settlements of the Neolithic Age in the Weihe River Basin,analyzing the current situation and On the basis of the existing shortcomings,the purpose and methods of this article are drawn.The second part to the fourth part are the specific analysis of the settlement patterns in each period.Through the three aspects of settlement constituent elements,settlement form and layout,and summary,the settlements in each period are comprehensively and systematically sorted out,and issues such as the shape and nature of the remains in the settlement,the layout and evolution of a single settlement are clarified.The fifth part is about settlement changes and economic and social development.The above content is summarized through three aspects of natural environment,production methods and settlement changes.In the early to late period of Yangshao,the settlement structure changed from an insignificant stratification and a relatively equal development to large-scale buildings as symbols of class society,and inequality within the settlement began.From the perspective of development,it expounds the change of the settlement form of Yangshao Culture from early to late and its internal development background.The sixth part is the study of Yangshao cultural settlements.Classify the Yangshao cultural relics according to the classification standards of small(<100,000 m2),medium(100,000-290,000 m2),large(300,000-490,000m2)and extra large(>500,000m2),and then calculate the statistics through GIS software The Yangshao cultural relics of Yangshao are shown on the topographic map in order to explore the distribution pattern of Yangshao cultural settlements in the basin as a whole.The seventh part is the conclusion.Carry out an overall summary of the research results of this article.
