Description

不明,王人镇王人集周围,东周、汉,又称西城城址,城址平面呈长方形,南北长约1.5千米,东西宽约1千米,面积1.5平方千米,20世纪60年代北城墙尚保留一段,系夯土筑成,宽约4米,残高2米,现城垣基本上被夷平,但西、北两面护城河尚存,西护城河沿岸出土过蚁鼻钱,发现年份原文未注;城东500米有汉墓群。据明正德《颍州志》称此为西城,后改为王老人集,今简称王人集。

Context unknown. Around the Wangren market town, Wangren Town; Eastern Zhou and Han; also known as the Xicheng ("West City") site. The city plan is rectangular, roughly 1.5 km north-south by 1 km east-west, covering 1.5 sq km. As of the 1960s a stretch of the north city wall survived, built of rammed earth about 4 m wide and standing to a residual height of 2 m; the walls have now largely been leveled, but the moats on the west and north sides survive, and ant-nose coins have been found along the west moat. The discovery year is not recorded in the source. A group of Han-dynasty tombs lies 500 m east of the city. According to the Ming Zhengde-era Yingzhou Gazetteer, this was the "West City," later renamed Wanglaoren Market, today abbreviated to Wangren Market.
