About: Huanbei

An Entity of Type: place, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Huanbei (Chinese: 洹北; pinyin: Huánběi) is the site of a Bronze Age city on the northern outskirts of the modern city of Anyang in Henan province, China, discovered in 1999. The name refers to its position to the north (běi) of the Huan River. The city seems to have been burnt to the ground after 50 years of occupation, shortly before the construction on the other side of the river of the site now known as Yinxu, the source of the earliest Chinese written records, oracle bones relating to the last nine kings of the Shang dynasty. Huanbei is accordingly assigned to a "Middle Shang" period.

  • Huanbei (Chinese: 洹北; pinyin: Huánběi) is the site of a Bronze Age city on the northern outskirts of the modern city of Anyang in Henan province, China, discovered in 1999. The name refers to its position to the north (běi) of the Huan River. The city seems to have been burnt to the ground after 50 years of occupation, shortly before the construction on the other side of the river of the site now known as Yinxu, the source of the earliest Chinese written records, oracle bones relating to the last nine kings of the Shang dynasty. Huanbei is accordingly assigned to a "Middle Shang" period. Artifacts had been recovered from the area since the 1960s. In 1999, a walled city eight feet beneath the surface was discovered in the course of a regional survey undertaken by the Institute of Archaeology at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences and the Archaeometry Laboratory at the University of Minnesota. The city has since been excavated by joint teams from Institute of Archaeology at the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences, the University of Minnesota, the University of Wisconsin and the University of British Columbia. The city has walls of pounded earth forming an approximate square oriented 13 degrees east of north, with an area of 470 hectares (1,200 acres), including a palace-temple complex of 41 hectares (100 acres). Part of the site lies under Anyang's airport, limiting the scope of excavations. (en)
  • Huanbei (洹北; Huánběi) eller Huanbei Shangstad (洹北商城; Huánběi Shāngchéng) är ruinerna efter en forna kinesisk stad från Shangdynastin (1600–1046 f.Kr.) i dagens Anyang i Henan. Huanbei ligger i norra delen av Anyang, norr om Huanfloden, delvis överlappande Anyang Airport, direkt nordost om utgrävningsplatsen Yinxu (som var Shangdynastins sista huvudstad). Huanbei är den största staden som har hittats från Shangdynastin och var sannolikt en av dynastins många huvudstäder, och var ett centrum för bronsgjutning. Sannolik datering av Huanbeis blomstringsperiod är från mitten av 1300-talet f.Kr. fram till ca 1300 f.Kr. Huanbei är tillsammans med Yinxu sedan 2006 listade som kulturellt världsarv av Unesco. (sv)
  • 洹北商城是一座位于河南省安阳市的商代古城遗址,是全国重点文物保护单位殷墟的一部分。因位于洹河以北而得名。面积达4.7平方公里。洹北商城遗址时间上分为早、晚两期。已发现的遗存有郭城壕沟、宫城城墙、宫殿建筑遗址、作坊等。宫殿建筑规制宏大。遗址出土了陶器和青铜器等。学者认为洹北商城是商王朝的都城之一,但并不能确定是文献记载的哪一座都城,可能是河亶甲的相都或盘庚的殷都。洹北商城的外郭城墙并未建成,宫殿可能毁于火灾,宫城仅使用了几十年,原因并不明朗。 (zh)
