峡江地区自古即为联系四川盆地和江汉平原、湘西北环洞庭湖流域的交通要道 ,也是重要的文化交汇地带。作为其中一部分的鄂西峡区 ,其西周时期考古遗存的研究显得相对薄弱。本文试图对过去的研究作一总结 ,指出其在文化分期、分类、文化因素分析及族属推定诸方面存在的问题 ,并为此方面研究的深化提出建议。 The Xiajiang River area has been the traffic arteries connecting the Sichuan Basin and the Jianghan Plain and the Dongting Lake basin in the northwestern part of Hunan Province since ancient times and is also an important cultural intersection. As a part of the western Hubei Xixia area, the study of archeological remains in the Western Zhou Dynasty is relatively weak. This article attempts to make a summary of the past research, points out the problems in the aspects of cultural staging, classification, cultural factor analysis and ethnic presumption, and puts forward suggestions for the deepening of this research.
