The middle reaches of the Yangtze River,located at the confluence of north-south and east-west traffic,played an important role in the history during the Han and Tang dynasties,and its development during the 3rd-6th centuries is an important historical landscape in the creation of the Wuchang Sui and Tang tombs.From the end of the Han Dynasty to the Western Jin Dynasty,the archaeological culture of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River made great progress and showed complex and diverse characteristics,which were closely related to the geographical position of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River that bridged the North and South,and its acceptance of immigrants during the wars in the northern part of the Central Plains.During the Southern Dynasties,the gap between the appearance of tombs in the middle reaches of the Yangtze River and those in the lower reaches widened,showing a characteristic tradition of celadon,painted bricks and terracotta figurines.The Wuchang Sui-Tang tombs continue this line of development,richly shaped by local traditions as well as other regional influences.The Wuchang Tomb leads us to revisit the question of the status of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River between the Han and Tang dynasties,which,in the midst of the turmoil of the Central Plains,achieved to some extent a sub-regional shift in the historical shift of China's north-south economic center of gravity from that of the middle reaches of the Yellow River to that of the middle reaches of the Yangtze River.
