周王府,是明初朱元璋之子朱橚在开封所建的王府,紫禁城为周王府的内城墙。1981年春,人们在清理龙亭前潘湖湖底淤泥时,意外地发现了明周王府的部分遗迹。经过大量工作,迄今已初步探明了周王府紫禁城的位置、形制、范围和部分门址,并在紫禁城北墙东段进行了重点试掘,进一步搞清了城墙结构、年代和其下早期城墙的地层叠压关系。现将主要收获报道如下。一紫禁城概况根据明代的有关文献记载,明周王府紫禁城的前身“本宋时建都宫阙旧基。明洪武十一年(1378年),太祖朱元璋封第五子朱橚于开封,号为周王。
Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming dynasty conferred his fifth son Zhu
Di the title of 'King of Zhou'during the Hongwu reign period.Zhu Di constructed his resi-
dence in Kaifeng on the very site of the royal palaces of the Song and Jin dynasties.The
house had an outer and an inner wall, also built on the foundation of the Song palace. The
flooding of the Huanghe at the end of the Ming dynasty left the residence——and the
whole Kaifeng in fact——somewhere below the present ground surface. In the spring of
1981 when workers cleared the silt of the Qianpan Lake, parts of the residence came to
light. The subsequent exploration and excavation reveal some aspects of the residence such
as its location, structure, circumference, gates, and in particular, its walls in terms of their
structure, date and relationship with the earlier wall beneathe them. It is clear that the in-
ner part of the house was built using the foundation of the royal palace of the Song dynat-
sy.
