Study On The Protection And Development Design Of Xiaxing Ancient Kiln Site In The Qing Dynasty In Rongchang,Chongqing

Ancient kiln sites,generally selected in places where clay,water,fuel and easy transportation(water transport)are available,are important cultural heritage resources in the countryside and are testimony to the changing production processes and technologies of pottery making in China over the ages.With its large scale,wide distribution area,rich remains and diverse and authentic excavations,ancient kiln sites have become important physical materials for the study of ancient ceramic production.However,with the acceleration of urbanization,the traditional rural cultural system is declining under the impact of the market economy,and the original farming civilization is considered backward in terms of living concepts and production methods,so that few rural relics remain from the destruction.In the 21 st century,with the acceleration of global integration and the worldwide wave of cultural heritage preservation,people gradually realize that cultural diversity is the most enduring feature of human history.Therefore,we should not only study the art of pottery making,but also protect and utilize the kiln used for pottery making,as well as the excavated specimens,which is in line with the international concept of cultural heritage conservation,that is,from the initial focus on individual cultural relics to the overall protection of the historical environment of cultural relics.In the context of "cultural confidence" and "rural revitalization",it is extremely urgent and important to treat cultural relics well,to let ancient kilns live with dignity in the present,and to leave permanent physical evidence for Chinese civilization.The largest kiln site was extinguished in 2002,and the kiln has been burning for 200 years,which is the historical witness of the prosperity of Rongchang pottery in the past.The article takes the site of Xiaxing ancient kiln of Qing Dynasty in Rongchang,Chongqing as the theme,and starts the research from the following three aspects: First,it composes the development history of Rongchang pottery,discusses the movement of "Huguang filling Sichuan" in late Ming and early Qing Dynasty and the related kilns,and focuses on the historical appearance of Xiaxing ancient kiln and the current situation of the site;second,it elaborates the main forms of ancient kilns.The second is to explain the main forms of ancient kilns,analyze the production and characteristics of step kilns,explain the site selection and layout of the Xaxing ancient kiln site,map the internal and external spatial structure of the kiln site,and discuss the appearance,internal structure,and use of the Xaxing ancient kiln building from the firing function;the third is to summarize the advantages and disadvantages of development and design by analyzing the natural environment,human factors,and existing problems around the Xaxing ancient kiln.Following the concepts of "optimizing and reshaping the overall environment","revitalizing and utilizing","respecting nature" and "harmonious coexistence".The development and design of the kiln site and its surrounding environment includes a mountain park,a waterfront landscape park,and a museum of the ancient kiln site.It is expected that the development of Xiaxing ancient kiln site will be integrated into the future rural revitalization development of Anfu town,and the historical style of Xiaxing ancient kiln site and its surrounding environment will be fully reproduced.It is expected to explore the sustainable development and cultural regeneration of the ancient kiln site,to protect the traditional cultural lineage to the maximum extent,and to retain the material and spiritual culture of the ancient kiln site in order to enhance the cultural identity and self-confidence of the local people and to promote the development of regional spiritual civilization and economy.
