走马楼吴简所见孙吴时期长沙地区的麦作

许多学者认为麦作在南方的推广,出现在南北朝时期。究其原因,主要是北方人口大量南迁,人口的增长以及饮食的需求,增加了对麦类的需求,促进了麦作在南方的推广。不过,从最近长沙地区出土的走马楼吴简来看,早在三国时期,麦作已经在长沙地区得到推广,其原因是南北军事对峙期间,喂养战马的需要,促进了麦作在这一地区的推广。

Research on Wheat Production of Changsha Region from the Inscribed Bamboo Slips in Wu Kingdom of Zoumalou

Many scholars believe that the promotion of wheat production appeared in South China in the period of Southern and Northern Dynasties,the main reason of which was the migration of people from North to South of China.The increasing number of population and the amount of diet needed more food,which promoted the wheat production in South China.However,from the inscribed bamboo slips of Wu Kingdom unearthed in Zoumalou,people find that the promotion of wheat production had appeared in the period of Three Kingdoms.At that time,due to the military confrontation between North and South,the need of feeding war horses stimulated the wheat production in Changsha region.
