东山村遗址位于张家港市金港镇南沙办事处,东距张家港市区18公里,北离长江约4公里。遗址位于香山东脊向东延伸的坡地上(图一)。1989年南沙镇政府盖楼时发现该遗址,之后由苏州博物馆分别于1989和1990进行了两次考古发掘[1]。1995年,东山村遗址定为江苏省文物保护单位。
The two terms of rescue excavations conducted to Dongshancun Site in August through November 2008 and March 2009 through February 2010 uncovered areas of about 2300 sq m in total. The excavations revealed a settlement of Songze Culture, which included house foundations, ash pits, burials, etc. , and recovered a set of high-ranking large burials of the early and mid phases of Songze Culture for the first time in the circum-Lake Tai area. All of the small burials of Songze Culture were found in Zone I of the site, all of the house foundations were found in Zone II and all of the high-ranking large burials were found in Zone II . In addition, several dozens of burials of Majiabang Culture were also recovered. The remains of Majiabang Culture belonged to the late phase of this culture and could roughly be divided into two stages, the early and the late. The remains of Songze Culture could be divided into three phases and six sub-phases, the dates of which were 5200--6000 BP. The high-ranking burials of Songze Culture found in Dongshancun Site filled up the blank of the high-ranking burials of Songze Culture and found the origin of the highly developed Liangzhu Civilization, and provided new materials for the new understanding of the comprehensive feature and the developing level of the social productivity of Songze Culture in the circum-Lake Tai region. The separate arrangement of the large and small burials and the emergence of the large house foundations in the early and mid Songze Culture showed that at least in 5800 BP, the clear social polarization and social stratification have appeared, provided new archaeological materials for the research on the civilization procedures in the lower reach of Yangtze River, and are also significantly meaningful for the research on the origina- tion of the Chinese Civilization.
