Not long ago, Shijiazhuang built the news of the construction of the Dongyuan Ancient City Site Park, and once again allowed this ancient city wall to enter people's vision, letting people examine the footprint left by history on this land.

The area under the jurisdiction of Shijiazhuang City is not only an area where the northern cities originally originally originally originally originally originally originally originally originally originally originally used. The large residents' sites found in Zhengding Shipu Shipu Shop, Tanchengtai and other places in Shijiazhuang, which reflects the intensive and population settlement of the area of ​​the Shang Dynasty. Seeing the historical records, there are at least 60 pasta walls of the political and political governances at or above the county level, of which 17 ancient cities are the political, economic, and cultural centers of the state and counties, and have continued to modern times.

More than 60 ancient city walls witnessed the history of building a city in Shijiazhuang

The summer of the summer has arrived, and the construction site of the Dongyuan Ancient City Park of Shijiazhuang City is under intense construction.

In the work report of the Shijiazhuang Municipal Government in 2022, it was clearly stated that the construction of the ancient city of Dongyuan Ancient City. According to the requirements, the results were first seen before the end of August this year, and the operation was completed by the end of June next year.

The news of the construction of the Dongyuan Ancient City Site has attracted many people's interest in the long history of Dongyuan Ancient City and the city of Shijiazhuang.

Someone can't help asking, where is the ancient city of Dongyuan?

Dongyuan Ancient City site is located in the northern part of Shijiazhuang Mayor An District.

For the site of the ancient city of Dongyuan, in the 1950s and 1980s, the cultural relics department had conducted investigations. Since 2004, the cultural relics department has conducted local archeological drilling. It was initially found that the plane of the ancient city was irregular rectangular. The North City Wall turned twice due to the terrain. Essence The city wall base is about 20 meters wide. From December to February to April 2012, the Hebei Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics conducted two explorations and investigations of the Dongyuan Ancient City site twice, and found 222 relics such as city walls, moats, kiln sites, and wells.

This unsightly site is not only the seventh batch of national key cultural relics protection units, but also the source of Shijiazhuang in history to become the central city of the Luanhe River Basin.

Dongyuan Ancient City, let us push away a door to examine the ancient city of the land that was active on this land.

Zhao Mingxin, former vice chairman of the Shijiazhuang CPPCC, said that according to preliminary research, within the scope of the city's jurisdiction, there were at least 60 urban walls of the political institutes recorded in the historical records or the political institutes above the county. Not only the ancient city of Dongyuan, but also the urban area of ​​Shijiazhuang and some counties and cities around them have shared a "treasure land" since ancient times, together in an important historical and cultural area.

Among them, the large -scale settlement sites of the Shang Dynasty built in the west of Tancheng Terrace have a large -scale settlement site of the Shang Dynasty, covering an area of ​​more than 100,000 square meters. The buildings are luxurious and the levels are clear. An important city is the political, economic, and cultural center in this area. It can also be described as the earliest original city site currently discovered by Shijiazhuang City. It has a history of at least 3400 years.

The Zhongshan State, located at the foot of the forests of Sanji Township, Pingshan County, is an important dungeon in the pre -Qin period. In archeology, it is named with Zhao Du Handan and Yan Kingdom. Essence

Dongyuan Ancient City belongs to a city in Zhongshan State, which shows that there has been a bustling city in the urban area of ​​Shijiazhuang. Zhongshan State was destroyed by Zhao Guo. After that, Qin Ke and Zhao Guo, Qin Shihuang unified China, and immediately set up a county in this area as Hengshan County. Dongyuan is the rule of Hengshan County. Qin Xiuchi said that the north -south line passed the Dongyuan, and the front line of the east to the west led to Shanxi. Dongyuan was the hub of Chi Dao at that time, and the importance of its strategic position was no less than that of the two railways of Beijing -Guangzhou and Shitai. As a result, Dongyuan's historical prelude to the central city of the Luohe River Basin.

At the beginning of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang moved Hengshan County to Yuanshi, and he was the county for hundreds of years. But Liu Bang quickly discovered that Dongyuan couldn't despise it. When the rebellion was settled, Liu Bang came to Dongyuan and made Dongyuan Qin's name. Take the occupation of Dongyuan to make the world really stable. Since then, there have been "Zhending" in Shijiazhuang. In the Western Han and Eastern Han Dynasty, there were more than a hundred years of the country's capital. Shijiazhuang Zhengding has a long history, and the world is well known, and the ancient city of Dongyuan is the front of Zhengding.

Zhao Mingxin introduced that since the end of the 1980s, many people of insight have begun to tap, promote the history and culture of Shijiazhuang, and explore the long history of Shijiazhuang. They are constantly discovering the treasures of history and sorting out the past city walls of historical books.

Among the more than 60 ancient city walls in Shijiazhuang, 17 ancient cities were the political, economic, and cultural centers of the state and counties, and continued to modern times. There are 15 seats in the county and city governments, and there are 14 cities with thousands of years of history. In addition, more than 40 ancient cities have lost the original political and economic centers in the historical development. Some gradually abolished and the ruins are difficult to find; Razed to the ground. However, some archeological excavations show a rich cultural connotation. These ancient city walls are an important carrier of Shijiazhuang's historical and culture. It is an unable to renovate the activated stone of human history. It is an important part of the historical appearance of these ancient cities from the aspects of literature and archeology. Regional Economic and Cultural Center outlined by the ancient city

The Luanhe River originated from Shanxi Fanzhang, through the Taihang Mountains in the east, via Gangnan and Huangbizhuang Reservoir, and passed through the northern part of Shijiazhuang City.

During the Yangshao culture of six or seven thousand years ago, there was a brilliant civilization here.

There is a highland in the northwest of Nanyangzhuang Village, the mayor of Shijiazhuang District in Zhengding County, Shijiazhuang County. The locals call it "Wolonggang". This "Wolonggang" is not simple. Cultural relics experts here discovered the cultural site of Yangzhuang in Nanyangzhuang.

The site was comprehensively excavated by the Hebei Provincial Institute of Cultural Relics from May 1980 to July 1981. It covers an area of ​​2140 square meters. The unearthed relics include stone, pottery, bone, and mussels, and 1,700 pieces.

Two ceramic silkworm pupa model unearthed at the site was identified as a house silkworm pupae by experts. Its discovery not only promoted the history of human raising silkworms to more than 3,400 BC, but also explained by the indisputable physical explanation that the Luohe River Basin, which is rich in wild mulberry resources, is one of the birthplaces of Chinese silkworm culture.

Within 15 kilometers of the main city of Shijiazhuang today, there are many important ancient cities and relics in different historical periods such as the ancient city of Shiyi and the site of the white Buddha mouth. Unexpectedly. These ancient cities also outline the development of the regional economic and cultural center around Shijiazhuang.

After the establishment of the Shang Dynasty, it created a very splendid commercial civilization. The discovery and excavation of the West Shang Dynasty site of the Tancheng Terrace provided historical evidence.

As early as the early 20th century, many ancient utensils had been unearthed in the West, but it was officially excavated until 1973. With the deepening of archeological work, more important cultural relics are excavated.

Zhao Mingxin said that the excavation of the Taiwanese Shang Dynasty ruins found a total of seven "the world's best." The earliest ironware, the earliest iron slag, the earliest surgical equipment, the earliest flat -grained silk textiles, the earliest dehydrated hemps, the earliest wine workshop site, and the earliest wine songs.

Especially the iron blade copper and slag found in the Taiwanese Shang Dynasty site fully proved that it began to smell the iron smelting and successfully build an ironware in the progress of human civilization as early as 3400 years ago. It will be written with the ruins of the Taiwan West Shang Dynasty into the history of the world civilization.

At present, it is found and preserved in the world's earliest wine, and it is also discovered in the site of Taiwan West Shang Dynasty. This shows the glorious history of Shijiazhuang agricultural civilization from the side.

In the Warring States Period, Zhongshan Culture is another brilliant achievement that has attracted worldwide attention in Shijiazhuang's historical culture after the Western Business Culture of Tanchengtai.

In the late autumn of 1974, the peasants of Sanji Township, Pingshan County found a few large pieces of pottery tiles while taking the soil under the mountain. The archeologists who were doing field investigations here recognized that this was used in large buildings such as palace during the Warring States Period. Taowa opened the excavation of Zhongshan Guoling and Guodu, and gradually unveiled the mysterious veil of this ancient kingdom.

Zhao Mingxin said that Zhongshan State was a vassal country established by the Bai Di people during the Warring States Period. They are in the land of Yan Zhao, Taihang Mountain, and flourishing several times, strong force. During the long archeological process, a large number of precious cultural relics with local characteristics were unearthed here. It is unique, decorated, and exquisitely made, and is rare in the tomb of the Warring States Period. The highly anticipated is the "Zhongshan Three Instruments" -the iron foot Ding Ding, Zhongshan Wang Yilong decorated copper square pot and copper round pot.

During the Warring States Period, the country of the country, the "Thousands of Kingdoms", which is second only to the seven "Wancheng Kingdoms", is known as the heroic style and the strategies of vertical and horizontal. The very important role was once known as the "Eighth Heroes of the Warring States Period".

Among the six new discoveries of China's archeology in 2017, the ruins of Xingtang County in Hebei were listed. This was a site of the Zhongshan State period. Three car and horses pit have been found in Hebei Province so far. It is best to preserve the best. Chequatkeng in the old county site can be pulled out.

Dongyuan is also an important city in Zhongshan Kingdom. As a strategic key, it continued for about a thousand years until the north of the Sui Ding County in the Sui Dynasty.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, Zhending became the capital of Hebei West Road. Since then, the status of the political, economic, and cultural center of Hebei West Road has been established.

A "treasure land" of the north and south of the north and south, Jijin's throat

In the long river of history, the ancient city of Dongyuan has been brilliant and declining, and it is almost forgotten by the world. The Dongyuan Ancient City Site Park, which is stepping up the construction, and more than 60 ancient city ruins and records in Shijiazhuang area, and constantly remind us that this land has bred a splendid ancient culture.

Modern Shijiazhuang is known as the "city of the train". Why did there have appeared so many ancient cities in the land of this emerging city? Zhao Mingxin said that the reason why Shijiazhuang area will form a relatively independent, but extremely colorful historical and cultural area, in the final analysis, it is determined by the geographical characteristics of this "treasure land". The Luo River is the mother river of Shijiazhuang. A series of ancient city walls in Shijiazhuang area are directly related to the location advantage of "Taihang Mountain+Luohe".

"The area of ​​Shijiazhuang, one is Taihang Mountain, which was raised from the sea more than 400 million years ago, and a well basin formed more than 2 million years ago. The vast and flat plain deployed from iceberg ice crickets, fertile land, and the third is the exit of narrow things in the well basin to communicate in Hebei and Shanxi. Due to the dense mountains in history, only through the well Basin can we connect to Jijin, but the throat of Jijin. It is the place where the Luohe is blocked between the Central Plains of Nantong and the north to Youyan, and the place where the main point is. "Zhao Mingxin believes that it is this geographical characteristics that formed the distinctive historical and cultural characteristics of Shijiazhuang.

There has always been a place where soldiers are competing in history, with countless battles.

Su Shi once had a verse that "Qianfeng rolled on the right of the tooth, and the cliff cut off the soil door", vividly described the terrain here. The famous "Backwater World War" in history occurred here. Han Xin used tens of thousands of troops, used it together, and ranked in the back of the water. One stroke. Therefore, the "Battle of Backwater" is also known as the "Battle of the Well".

The reason is because of Taihang Shan Shan High Road Insurance.

Mr. Ding Wenjiang, a pioneer of Chinese modern geology, believes that "there is no well in the road of Taihang Mountain, because it is the only way to take a big car in Taihang Mountain."

Inoue, the fifth 陉 of Taihang Hachi, Qinhuang Ancient Road has remained so far.

Since ancient times, this has always been Jijin's throat. The rivers are turbulent and turbulent. In history, it is called "滹 pond", "evil pool", and "small yellow river", such as the sky. Because this area is to control the key to the throat, the north and the south, the key to the north and the south, whether it is the north to take the Yanyan, or the south to the Central Plains, win the Hebei to get the Jin Dynasty, and the east to compete and west. This is a strategic place.

During the Zhongshan State period, this area was "eaten upstream", and its trade and trade were quite developed. The war and turmoil caused serious damage to the economy, but when encountering a peaceful and stable environment, the economy can quickly recover and develop. Dongyuan Ancient City came into being under such conditions.

Here is the advanced ideological and culture of the Central Plains and the northern nation, and the civilization is brilliant.

It is now in the Kaiyuan Temple of Shijiazhuang Zhengding, and the famous religious buildings such as Hua Tower of Kaiyuan Temple, Guanghui Temple Hua Tower, Tianning Temple Lingxiao Tower, Linji Temple Chengling Tower, and Pilu Temple, all of which were built in the Tang Dynasty. Zhaozhou Anji Bridge is the originator of large -scale open -shoulder stone arch bridges in the world. It has been confirmed by the United Nations as the World Human Cultural Heritage Site. These are inseparable from the development of ancient cities such as Zhengding Ancient City and Pingjo Ancient City.

The traffic here is conducive to the development of business.

During the Ming and Qing dynasties, Shijiazhuang's industrial and commercial business developed to its heyday. Especially with the rise of the Jin Shang, the deer as a must -have place for the eastward travel of the Jin merchants has appeared unprecedentedly prosperous.

In 1902, the Jinghan Railway invested by France and Belgium was built to Shijiazhuang. In 1907, the Zhengtai Railway (now Shitai Railway) was opened to traffic, and the starting point was located in Shijiazhuang. Since then, as the intersection of the Zhengtai and the Beijing -Han Dynasty railway, Shijiazhuang has become a transportation hub, and the transportation industry, business, and industries have developed rapidly, and modern cities have begun to rise.

"The meeting connection of the Beijing -Han and Shitai Railway in Shijiazhuang seems to be accidental, but it just shows that this is the most convenient connection between the north and the south and the throat of the Jijin. From the ancient city of Dongyuan to Changshan County, from the old city of Shiyi to Shinding City, a century -old city, thousands of years of abolition, has been surrounded by the suburbs of Shijiazhuang. With the rise of modern transportation and machinery industry, the rise of Shijiazhuang is the rule of the past city. The continuation of this land. "Zhao Mingxin said.

Among them, bronze short swords, copper spears, copper mirrors and currencies from the Warring States Period to Xin Mang period.
