Description

《汉书·地理志》上郡有属县漆垣。最早为魏国所设,后入秦。战国中晚期秦国上郡所铸的多件兵器中有“漆垣”铭文。漆垣位于铜川西北,具体位置不详。

The Hanshu records that Shang Commandery included Qiyuan County. Qiyuan was first established by the state of Wei and was later captured by Qin. Inscriptions on bronze weapons indicate that Qiyuan was an important production center after it came under Qin control. It was located northwest of present-day Tongchuan, although its precise location remains uncertain.
