三星堆考古新发现！

7月23日，记者从四川省文物考古研究院获悉，2022年至2024年，考古工作者在三星堆遗址新发现与玉石器生产加工相关的遗存。该遗迹经专家初步判断为玉石器“生产车间”，年代为商代中期，距今约3500年至3400年，比三星堆祭祀坑的埋藏年代更早。

这是三星堆遗址首次发现手工业作坊。用新材料来实证三星堆玉器、石器等原料的来源问题，解答三星堆古城功能布局等系列问题，是三星堆考古研究重要一步。

Archaeologists at the legendary Sanxingdui Ruins site have uncovered a jade and stone artifact processing site dating back over 3,400 years, revealing the source of the previously discovered cultural relics there.

在三星堆月亮湾燕家院子附近，四川省文物考古研究院陆续发现了高等级建筑基址、灰坑、灰沟、石器生产加工遗迹等400多处，出土陶器、玉器、石器等4000多件。新出土的文物形成早期手工业较为完整的链条。专家初步判断新发现为玉石器作坊。

Located approximately one kilometer north of the previously unearthed sacrificial pits, this latest discovery marks significant progress in the archaeological excavation at Sanxingdui in southwest China's Sichuan province, the provincial cultural relics and archaeology research institute said Tuesday, noting that the archaeologists have preliminarily identified this site as a jade and stone production workshop.

“‘生产车间’的发现，将揭开三星堆出土的大量玉石器原料来自哪里、制作工艺技术如何、生产流程和流通方式等谜题。”四川省文物考古研究院三星堆遗址工作站站长冉宏林说。

"The discovery of the workshop sheds light on several mysteries, such as the origins of the large quantities of jade and stone raw materials found at Sanxingdui, the techniques used in their crafting, the production processes, and the distribution methods involved," said Ran Honglin, who is in charge of the archaeological work at Sanxingdui Ruins site, under the research institute.

To date, more than 60,000 cultural relics have been unearthed at Sanxingdui. The new Sanxingdui Museum has attracted over 5 million visitors from around the world since its opening nearly a year ago.

位于四川省广汉市的三星堆遗址，揭示古蜀文明的历史文化，生动实证中华文明的多元一体，为世界感悟东方文明打开了一扇窗。

Located in the city of Guanghan, around 60 km from the provincial capital, Chengdu, the ruins covering an area of 12 square km are believed to be the remnants of the Shu Kingdom, dating back some 4,500 to 3,000 years.
