The Shaojiapeng site is located within the construction control zone of the Yinxu protection area,2.4 kilometers northwest of the Yinxu palace and ancestral temple area.A total of 18 building foundations from the Yinxu period were excavated,which can be divided into four groups:A,B,C,and D.Group A consists of courtyard-style buildings,while Groups B and C consist of two-part compound buildings with front and rear sections.The conditions of Group D are unknown due to excavation limitations.These building groups overlay the large central tomb M106,suggesting they may be auxiliary structures associated with it.Numerous contemporary Yinxu period tombs are distributed around the building complex,with many bronze artifacts inscribed with the character"册"(ce)unearthed from the tombs,indicating that this area was the settlement of the"Ce"clan.This site is one of the few relatively well-structured clan settlements known in Yinxu to date.The discovery of the building foundations and tombs provides important data for studying architectural styles,social structures,and clan settlement pattems during the Yinxu period.
