The Duanjing-cun site is on the right bank of the Jinghe River,under the juristiction of Xinbaozi township,Binxian county, Shaanxi province, and in the territory of Binyi recorded in ancient texts. In order to explore the predynastic Zhou culture of the time when the Zhou people lived in the Bin area,the Jing-Wei Archaeological Team,IA,CASS,excavated the site in 1995. Six squares were excavated, and one ash-trench, 22 ash-pits and four graves of the Shang period were revealed. The ash-pits are generally oval in plan. The graves are all rectangular earth shafts and measure 4. 92m in length and 3.8m in width for the largest. Among the artifacts, including excavated and collected, there are bronze axes, knives and arrowheads, gold ornaments, pottery li tripods, yan steamers, gui basins, dou stemmed vessels and jars, stone axes and knives, and bone spades and oracle bones. The Shang period remains at the site can be divided into two stages. The first stage, characterized by the li with a decorative border appliqued along the rim, a high collar, a split crotch and pointed hollow legs, is estimated to be of roughly the same date as the first phase of the Yin Ruins at Anyang. This must be the predynastic Zhou culture of the Bin-occupied period. In the second stage, the li was slightly changed, with cord design appliqued on the neck and the crotch becoming arched. Its date roughly corresponds to that of the predynastic Zhou culture remains of the Qi-occupied period. Meanwhile, the foot-pit in the tombs and the shapes of gold ornaments and bronze axes all show distinct stylistic features of the Rong, Di and Gulf aug cultures. The whole batch of material may verify the historical records on the Zhou people once living in the Bin area and provides important clues for further identifying the location of Binyi.
