基里瓜遗址(西班牙语:Quiriguá西班牙语发音:[kiɾiˈɣwa])是位于瓜地马拉东南部伊萨瓦尔的古马雅遗迹。它沿莫塔瓜河下游、占地约3平方公里(1.2平方英里),属于中型遗址[2],其中礼仪中心位在距北岸1公里(0.6英里)处[3]马雅古典时期英语Mesoamerican chronology(公元200年–900年)时,基里瓜坐落于几条重要贸易路线英语Trade in Maya civilization的交点。遗址的卫城内建有200座建筑、约始于公元550年,八世纪时开始兴建大型建筑。所有工程在约公元850年停止动工,仅在后古典时代初期(约公元900年–约公元1200年)短暂复工。基里瓜遗址和邻近的古典时期城市科潘拥有相同的建筑与雕塑风格,历史发展也紧密相依[4]

基里瓜在8世纪的快速发展与其统治者考阿克天于738年战胜科潘有关。科潘统治者英语List of rulers of Copán十八兔王败于基里瓜并被抓获,在基里瓜的大广场被献祭[5]。在这之前,基里瓜曾是科潘附庸国,但后来基里瓜维持了自己的独立地位。基里瓜的仪式建筑物英语Maya architecture并不多,但基里瓜的建筑物十分丰富,在基里瓜有新大陆里最高的纪念性建筑物英语monumental sculpture[6]

地名与地理位置

编辑
 
玛雅南部地区英语southern Maya area地图,图中显示了基里瓜(Quiriguá)和科潘Copán)的所在位置
 
莫塔瓜河上的基里瓜的位置,与玉石的交易线有关

基里瓜遗址以邻近的同名村庄为名命名,[7] 它位于瓜地马拉市东北方向的约200km处;[8] 它位于伊萨瓦尔省洛斯阿马特斯市内超过平均海拔75m的地方[9]

基里瓜位于莫塔瓜河低处的北部河岸,也是山谷扩为河漫滩的地方,这也让基里瓜数个世纪来饱受周期性洪灾的困扰[10][11]。尽管在基里瓜的占领期内河流一直在靠近此处,但它也自此改变了流向,流至离仪式中心南部1km的位置[3]。基里瓜位于科潘北部48km处[6]并现今位于瓜地马拉洪都拉斯国境的西北方向15.7km处。

基里瓜当地的基岩是硬红的砂岩,当地居民用此来建造纪念碑和其他建筑物英语Mesoamerican architecture。这种砂岩十分坚硬,且不易断裂英语Shear (geology)破裂英语Fracture (geology),这使得基里瓜的雕刻者们可以建立起美洲最高的独立式石建筑物[12]。基里瓜是在莫塔瓜断层英语Motagua Fault上被直接建造起来的,它也因此在古时受到大地震的袭击[13]

人口

编辑

尽管基里瓜的精英阶层明显为玛雅人[14],但由于它位于中部美洲地区的边缘地带,所以基里瓜人至少也是两种种族的混血人群[15]玛雅人为少数族群[10]。大多数当地人在种族上属于不那么复杂的中间地带英语Intermediate Area(位于中部美洲的东部边境)[15]。据估算,基里瓜中心地带的人口密度后经典期为400人至500人每平方千米[16],人口密度在最高峰时达到1200–1600人每平方千米[17];据调查,基里瓜当地平均每平方千米有130座建筑物,而科潘的中心部则是每平方千米有1449座建筑物[18]。较低的人口密度也暗示着基里瓜是一个分散农村人口的聚集点[10]

在738年发生的那场成功的叛变之后,基里瓜谷的人口快速增长,然基里瓜从未能成为一个人口众多的城邦[19]。在9世纪发生了严重的人口减少,城邦也最终遭到废弃[20]
