Context unknown. Anciently named Wudian; after Qi destroyed the state of Ji in the Spring-and-Autumn period, a secondary capital was established here. After Liu Bang proclaimed himself emperor of the Western Han he enfeoffed the Marquis of Duchang here, making it the seat of a marquisate. At the end of the Eastern Han, Kong Rong, while serving as Chancellor of Beihai, garrisoned here while suppressing the Yellow Turbans. The city was abandoned after the Yongjia turmoil of the Western Jin. Qi-state knife coins, Han-dynasty Wuzhu coins, and cloud-scroll tile-ends have often been found nearby; a school and government offices now stand atop the old city. Supplementary information from the Atlas of Chinese Cultural Relics: the old city of Duchang is located on Qingnian Road, Kuiju Subdistrict; Eastern Zhou and Han periods; rectangular in plan, about 400 m north-south and 300 m east-west; the city wall was leveled long ago, and most of the site now lies beneath Changyi No. 1 Middle School and the municipal stadium, so the extent of the cultural deposits is unknown. A pottery well was found in the northwest part of the city; finds include Eastern Zhou sand-tempered gray-pottery jar rims, clay-paste gray-pottery dou handles, and bronze knife coins, along with Han-dynasty clay-paste gray-pottery jar rims and cloud-scroll tile-ends. The Gazetteer of Changyi County and other sources record it as a Qi settlement in the Spring-and-Autumn period, the fief of the Marquis of Duchang, Zhu Zhen, in the early Western Han, later the seat of Duchang County, abandoned under the Liu Song dynasty. Located west of Qingnian Road, in the area flanking Liujiaxinge Village and Limin Street.
