Situated near Wei River in the northern suburb of Xi`an city, Han Yang Ling mausoleum ( also called Yangling) is the historical site designated for state protection. This mausoleum which combines modern technology, ancient civilization, historical culture and garden scenery, is built at the base of the joint tomb of Emperor Jindi and his Empress. Emperor Jindi (188BC—141BC), named Liu Qi, was the fourth Emperor of the Western Han Dynasty. During his 17-year reign, he adhered to the philosophy of Yellow Emperor and Saint Laozi, whose main doctrine was to follow the natural principles. He developed a peaceful relationship with the Huns through intermarriage, and reduced the burden of tax and penalty. According to historical records, “the state revenue of the ancient capital was brimming with coins that the ropes, used for tying, decayed, leaving them impossible to count. Foods in state storage was permeated, most of them decayed”. Emperor Jindi, together with his father Emperor Wendi, opened a golden era of harmony in the early feudal society, which was later regarded as “the Great Reign of Wen and Jin”.
30 odd years of excavation shows that the Hanyangling Mausoleum is mainly composed of the Emperor and Empress` graveyards, southern and northern burial pits, ritual building, the satellite and criminal`s graveyards, and Yangling town. To the west of them, lies the emperor and empress`tomb, northern and southern burial pits and the remains of ancestral construction.
The emperor`s tomb is surrounded by 81 burial pits radiating from the centeral mound. A 110-meter wide Sacred Road, flanked by 10000 odd satellite tombs of ancient high officials, leads directly to Yangling Town. This scene is similar to ancient morning court held by the emperor. Objects unearthed from the 200 odd burial pits include armored warrior figures with weapons, elegant palace maids with Han costumes, countless animals with vivid expressions.
The hanyangling is the most intact royal mausoleum and the most important tangible document in the research of burial customs and civilization of the Han Dynasty.
阳陵是汉景帝刘启及其皇后王氏同茔异穴的合葬陵园,位于今陕西省咸阳市渭城区正阳镇张家湾、后沟村北的咸阳原上, 地跨咸阳市渭城区、泾阳县、高陵县三县区。当地人为了和隋朝的杨陵有区别,称其为汉阳陵
汉阳陵始建于公元前153年,至公元前126年竣工,陵园占地面积20平方公里,修建时间长达28年。
汉景帝刘启(公元前188—141年)是西汉第四位皇帝,在位17年。执政期间,他崇奉“黄老之术”,轻摇薄赋,减笞去刑,和亲匈奴,与民休息。与其父汉文帝刘恒共同开创了中国封建社会早期治国安邦的黄金时代,被后世赞誉为“文景之治”,为其子汉武帝刘彻开疆拓土,开辟丝绸之路奠定了雄厚的基础。
汉阳陵主要由帝陵陵园、后陵陵园、南区从葬坑、北区从葬坑、礼制建筑、陪葬墓园、刑徒墓地以及阳陵邑等部分组成。
汉阳陵帝陵坐西向东,被81条呈放射状的陪葬坑簇拥着,其四周则分布着后陵、南、北区从葬坑及礼制建筑遗址等。帝陵封土高约31米,陵底边长160米,顶部东西54米,南北55米,陵园为正方形,边长4l0米,四边中央各有一门,均距帝陵封土110米。帝陵园内86座从葬坑的钻探发现和试掘为汉陵的田野调查、钻探和发掘提出了新的课题,为帝陵制度的研究开辟了新的视野。这些从葬坑的分布和坑内陪葬物品的放置,无疑与当时宫廷的制度等有关,因而对这批从葬坑的发掘和研究,对汉代宫廷制度、帝王生活、陪葬习俗的研究都具有重大价值。
