| Abstract: |
| Jianghuai region is an important area to explore the mineral resources exchange in the Bronze Age, due to its special geographical location, complex cultural landscape and rich resource of copper. The lead isotope data and trace element data of the Shang-Zhou bronzes in this area were collected and discussed. The results show that most of the Shang bronzes analyzed contain high radiogenic lead and have a typical style of Yin Ruins bronzes, which are deeply influenced by the Central Plains. During the Western Zhou Dynasty, the mineral materials in southern Anhui were transported to the Central Plains through the “Jindaoxihang”(金道锡行). Bronzes unearthed in Tianhu site and the vassal states of the Central Plains mainly use mineral materials from Tonglv Mountain, Daye city. The mineral materials of bronzes unearthed in Anhui province mainly came from southern Anhui. There is a strong consistency in mineral materials between Jianghuai region, the Central Plains and surrounding areas during the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The spatial pattern of bronze mineral materials changed in the Warring States period, which shows that mineral resources shifted from the southern Anhui and the southeastern Hubei to the northern Jiangxi and the western Henan. |
