沉船与海上丝绸之路
编者按:
众所周知,地表面积海洋占71%,生命源于海洋,这似乎注定了人类与海洋不可分离。因此,在考察人类与海洋的互动过程中,沉船承载了大量的历史信息,记录了不同时代、不同区域、不同民族、不同文化、不同技术的人们所创造的历史,无疑成为水下考古与文化遗产保护的主要内容之一。
过去的30年,中国水下考古从无到有,队伍从小到大,力量从弱到强,海域从北到南,一艘艘沉船相继被发现,一颗颗“时间胶囊”相继被打开。南海Ⅰ号、华光礁一号、三道岗沉船、南澳Ⅰ号、珊瑚岛一号,历经宋元明清,映照着中国古代海上丝绸之路曾经的繁华,诉说着过往历史的兴衰递嬗,同时见证了中国水下考古的一步步足迹。
本刊汇聚了一批有关沉船考古成果研究的优秀论文,组成“沉船与海上丝绸之路”专题,揭示中国古代海上丝绸之路对当时航路所及之地经济发展的影响、文化交流的状况,旨在唤起人们对海上丝路考古成果的更多关注,引起学者进一步研究之兴致。

内容提要:华光礁一号沉船是一艘南宋早期的南海贸易商船,位于西沙群岛西侧中部的华光礁礁盘上。华光礁地处海上丝绸之路重要航线,是我国通往南海各国的交通要地。华光礁一号沉船通过水下考古调查和发掘,出水了一大批产自南方地区的外销瓷器,包括浙江龙泉窑、江西景德镇窑以及福建地区的德化窑、晋江磁灶窑、闽清义窑、松溪窑等诸窑产品,类别丰富,还有一些铜镜、铁条材等金属遗物,以及保存相对较好的船体构件。结合中国沿海及东南亚海域发现的沉船及其出水遗物来看,宋代特别是南宋时期的海外贸易有了新的发展,其船货类别有了一定的变化,这也反映了其贸易港口、商品来源等方面的变迁。海外贸易的发展也带动了南方沿海及邻近内地区域经济的发展,尤其是华南沿海地区宋代以来制瓷手工业的兴盛和外向型生产特征。同时,这些船货遗存在东南亚、南亚、西亚、非洲东海岸等地区均有发现,尤以外销瓷为典型代表,这正是宋元时期海上丝绸之路繁荣发展的历史见证。
