基里瓜遺址(西班牙語:Quiriguá西班牙語發音:[kiɾiˈɣwa])是位於危地馬拉東南部伊薩瓦爾的古馬雅遺跡。它沿莫塔瓜河下游、佔地約3平方公里(1.2平方英里),屬於中型遺址[2],其中禮儀中心位在距北岸1公里(0.6英里)處[3]馬雅古典時期英語Mesoamerican chronology(公元200年–900年)時,基里瓜坐落於幾條重要貿易路線英語Trade in Maya civilization的交點。遺址的衛城內建有200座建築、約始於公元550年,八世紀時開始興建大型建築。所有工程在約公元850年停止動工,僅在後古典時代初期(約公元900年–約公元1200年)短暫復工。基里瓜遺址和鄰近的古典時期城市科潘擁有相同的建築與雕塑風格,歷史發展也緊密相依[4]

基里瓜在8世紀的快速發展與其統治者考阿克天於738年戰勝科潘有關。科潘統治者英語List of rulers of Copán十八兔王敗於基里瓜並被抓獲,在基里瓜的大廣場被獻祭[5]。在這之前,基里瓜曾是科潘附庸國,但後來基里瓜維持了自己的獨立地位。基里瓜的儀式建築物英語Maya architecture並不多,但基里瓜的建築物十分豐富,在基里瓜有新大陸里最高的紀念性建築物英語monumental sculpture[6]

地名與地理位置

[編輯]

The landmass is located in Central America and bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the southwest, the Gulf of Mexico to the northwest and the Atlantic Ocean to the east.

莫塔瓜河上的基里瓜的位置,與玉石的交易線有關

基里瓜遺址以隣近的同名村莊為名命名,[7] 它位於危地馬拉市東北方向的約200km處;[8] 它位於伊薩瓦爾省洛斯阿馬特斯市內超過平均海拔75m的地方[9]

基里瓜位於莫塔瓜河低處的北部河岸,也是山谷擴為河漫灘的地方,這也讓基里瓜數個世紀來飽受周期性洪災的困擾[10][11]。儘管在基里瓜的佔領期內河流一直在靠近此處,但它也自此改變了流向,流至離儀式中心南部1km的位置[3]。基里瓜位於科潘北部48km處[6]並現今位於瓜地馬拉洪都拉斯國境的西北方向15.7km處。

基里瓜當地的基岩是硬紅的砂岩,當地居民用此來建造紀念碑和其他建築物英語Mesoamerican architecture。這種砂岩十分堅硬,且不易斷裂英語Shear (geology)破裂英語Fracture (geology),這使得基里瓜的雕刻者們可以建立起美洲最高的獨立式石建築物[12]。基里瓜是在莫塔瓜斷層英語Motagua Fault上被直接建造起來的,它也因此在古時受到大地震的襲擊[13]

人口

[編輯]

儘管基里瓜的精英階層明顯為馬雅人[14],但由於它位於中部美洲地區的邊緣地帶,所以基里瓜人至少也是兩種種族的混血人群[15]馬雅人為少數族群[10]。大多數當地人在種族上屬於不那麼複雜的中間地帶英語Intermediate Area(位於中部美洲的東部邊境)[15]。據估算,基里瓜中心地帶的人口密度後經典期為400人至500人每平方千米[16],人口密度在最高峰時達到1200–1600人每平方千米[17];據調查,基里瓜當地平均每平方千米有130座建築物,而科潘的中心部則是每平方千米有1449座建築物[18]。較低的人口密度也暗示着基里瓜是一個分散農村人口的聚集點[10]

在738年發生的那場成功的叛變之後,基里瓜谷的人口快速增長,然基里瓜從未能成為一個人口眾多的城邦[19]。在9世紀發生了嚴重的人口減少,城邦也最終遭到廢棄[20]
