The study of the pottery li genealogy is an important topic in the archaeology of the pre-Qin period.The plain pottery li has significant regional characteristics,mainly popular in the Haidai area of the pre-Qin period.The plain pottery li in Haidai area lasted for nearly two thousand years and is one of the landmark artifacts for the study of cultural stages,divisions,pedigree and changes in the pre-Qin period.This paper takes the plain pottery li from the Longshan Period to the Eastern Zhou Period in Haidai area as the main research object,uses archaeological typology and cultural factor analysis methods to systematically collect and organize the unearthed and collected the plain pottery li in Haidai area,carries out the classification study of the plain pottery li,and establishes the chronological framework and developmental pedigree of the plain pottery li.Clarify the distribution rules of the plain pottery li in different periods,trace its origin and circulation and reveal the cultural changes and ethnic relations reflected behind it.After research and combing,the following conclusions can be drawn.The late Longshan culture was the initial stage of the plain pottery li in Haidai area’s development.During this period,in the exchange and interaction between the Haidai area and the second phase of the Hougang culture,the pottery li was spread to the Haidai area,mainly distributed in the northern Shandong region and northwestern Shandong region in the frontier of communication with the eastern foothills of the Taihang Mountains,and the emergence of the plain pottery li was closely related to the Youge clan and the Yourong tribe.During the Yueshi culture period,the number of the plain pottery li decreased sharply,which is related to the westward expansion of the Yueshi culture.During the Shang and Zhou Dynasties,under the expansion of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties,the pottery li’s culture spread widely,and the plain pottery li was fully revived and ushered in a peak.The emergence of a variety of the plain pottery li should be a vivid embodiment of the culture of the Haidai area borrowing from the surrounding areas.The plain pottery li in Haidai area distribution range from northern Shandong to Jiaodong,becoming a typical pottery of the Pearl Gate culture,and its users are mainly Ren(Yi)Fang and Wei Yi.During this period,the concentration of the plain pottery li was distributed in the area from Linzi to Weifang,and was related to the Zhenguan clan and the Zhenxun clan.During the Eastern Zhou Dynasty,the pottery li gradually declined in major cultural areas,and the plain pottery li in Haidai area gradually withdrew from the historical stage in the tide of history.Through the above research,this paper has basically clarified the development law of the plain pottery li in Haidai area and the historical process reflected by it.However,there are still many deficiencies in this study.First,on the basis of local development,the plain pottery li in Haidai region also spread to other regions with ethnic communication and migration,especially IN central Plains and Jianghuai region.The transmission process of the plain pottery li is still unclear,so it is necessary to conduct comparative studies based on the staging system of the plain pottery li in Haidai region in the future.Second,the production technology,production mode,product circulation and use mode of the plain pottery li need to carry out scientific and technological archaeology empirical analysis. |
