This excavation unearthed a large number of cultural relics and unearthed more than 1,000 pieces of small pieces of cultural relics such as pottery, stone tools, jade articles, bronze wares, bones, etc., and excavated a large number of rope-patterned gray pottery pieces, and unearthed bronze wares such as pots, pots, gongs, plates, plates and other bronzes. 51 containers, unearthed daggers, Ge, spears and other bronze weapons 11 pieces.

“According to the drilling situation, the staff selected three sites in the site area for targeted excavation.” Hou Hongwei, a researcher at the Gansu Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology, told reporters that the excavated materials cover a number of historical periods, both in the Western Zhou Dynasty. Rope-grained gray pottery pieces, as well as the Dong Zhou period pots, pots, beans, cans, etc., also found a small plaza in the Warring States period, should be the place where people held public activities nearby.

The important discovery of this excavation was the unearthing of the Qin Warriors in two excavated horse pits. Hou Hongwei said that the tanks, wheels, ruts, yoke and other components of this tank are relatively complete. The skeletons of the two horses driving are also clearly visible. There is also a long shaft of about 3 meters in length between the two horses. spear. “According to inference, the time of this chariot is about the early Spring and Autumn period, from about 2700 to 2600 years ago, it provides valuable physical information for the study of Qin’s early combat horses and history and culture.”

"The preservation of such a complete chariot is rare, and it is different from any chariot in the past. What was the development of the metal foundry industry in the early Spring and Autumn, how it was combated, how the traffic was, whether there was a driving car, it could be unearthed. This Qin chariot finds relevant answers. The unearthed cultural relics provide the basis for the study of Qin’s long military tradition and comparatively strong military strength, and provide further research protection for Qin’s traffic development. Liang Yun said.

Discovering the Clan Family Cemetery

After excavation, archaeologists basically determined the scope and scale of the Maojiaping site. The area of ​​the site exceeded 600,000 square meters, far exceeding the original estimate. “The site is located on the ancient traffic arteries of Tianshui-Li County. The strategic location for the Qin people to go north eastward is the largest and most well-preserved site of the Zhou Dynasty in the valley of Gan River in the upper reaches of the Weihe River.” Liang Yun said that with such a large-scale and important strategic position, the Maojiaping site should be able to communicate with ancient documents. Some historical cities or prefectures correspond.

Wang Hui, director of the Institute of Cultural Relics and Archaeology of Gansu Province, described the records of the "Historical Records". In 688 BC, Qin Wugong conquered the Xiqiao tribes in the depression and established Yuxian County after defeating. This is the earliest county established by Qin and is also China. One of the earliest established counties in history. “According to historical records, Jixian County is located in the Gangu County in the southeastern part of Gansu Province and the upper reaches of the Weihe River. The local people also have the view of 'the first county of Huaxia'.”

“After archaeological excavation and research, it can basically be determined that it is the county seat of Gulin County (county town).” Combining the records of the “Sutra Commentary” and other documents, Liang Yun believes that this place is exactly where Qin Wugong set up Ji County. At the same time, the prosperity of the site and the excavation of high-grade noble tombs and chequer pits, etc., are all in line with the history of Yi County. In addition, the identity of the highest class noble tomb unearthed in Maojiaping was also confirmed by the earliest county government. “This aristocratic tomb was in the middle of the Spring and Autumn Period. The tombs were adult males. There were Wuding four gongs and bronze gems in the tomb. There are two columns of 14 characters in the inscription on the Geshang. The first six characters in the right column are called “Qingong Zuozi”. With ', the word is rusted." According to Liang Yun, according to the tomb's specifications and ages, it can be inferred that the area of ​​the Maojiaping Ruins is a sub-Che family cemetery. The tomb owner is probably the patriarch of the Zi Che family. Qin Mugong was appointed as the chief executive of Yu County.

Qin culture chronicles can be pushed to the Western Zhou Dynasty

Archeological exploration of the early Qin culture began in the 1980s when the excavation of the Maojiaping site in Gangu County was discovered. In the early 1980s, archaeologists discovered the Qin cultural relics of the Western Zhou Dynasty for the first time at the Maojiaping site in the Gangu County of the upper reaches of the Weihe River. At the same time, they excavated the Qin culture and the Xi Culture Remains of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

In recent years, the Qing Dynasty's "Year of the Year" written by the historian Li Xueqin had recorded Qin. In his opinion, the Qin was originally a merchant from Shandong. When he became king at the beginning of the week, he was forced to migrate to the Zhuqian Mountain area in Gangu, where he was known as the Western Emperor. His opinion once influenced greatly. “Maojiaping Ruins is near Zhuju Mountain, so whether Maojiaping Qin cultural relics belong to the merchants living in the west, they need to be excavated again to confirm. In addition, the chronology of the early Qin culture, Xiqiao culture in eastern Gansu and other important academic The question also asked that the Maojiaping site be discovered again to get the answer.” This is an important reason for the joint excavation team.

According to the results of the three archeological excavations, archaeologists divided the remains of the Qin culture site into four phases, and believed that the time extended from the early Western Zhou Dynasty to the middle and late Warring States period; the tombs were divided into five phases, which were equivalent to the Western Zhou Dynasty, Western Zhou Dynasty, and Spring and Autumn. Spring, autumn, spring and autumn evenings and early Warring States Period. As the excavated tombs of the Western Zhou Dynasty were all headed to the west and buried in limbs, the traditional tombs of the Dongzhou and Qin tombs in the Guanzhong area were the same. The earthenware, pots, beans, and pots unearthed in the tomb were also inherited in the same vein as the latter. The expert judged it as the Qin Tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty and presumed the cultural relics of his residence as the Qin culture of the Western Zhou Dynasty.

“Maojiaping site has unearthed a large number of physical materials such as bronze wares, inscriptions, and chequer pits unearthed. It has high historical research value and heavy cultural connotation. It pushed the chronology of Qin culture to the Western Zhou Dynasty and created an archeological exploration. The early Qin culture has provided the physical data for the further exploration of the time and route of the relocation of Qian Qin to the West. It is a milestone in academic history for the study of the distribution, life, and ethnic integration of the ancient ethnic groups of the Gan Valley and even the upper reaches of the Weihe River.” Gangu County Heritage Unit The person in charge said in an interview with reporters.

Liang Yun told reporters that the Maojiaping site has entered the phase of cultural relics restoration, data compilation, and archeological report writing, and protective backfilling of excavated sites. The work of reporting the top ten archaeological discoveries in 2014, state-level key cultural relics protection units, and Maojiaping Relics Park was also gradually carried out.
