Abstract

Since 1995, four terms of survey and excavation have been conducted on the Laosicheng Site in Yongshun County, Hunan Province. It resulted in the preliminary clarification of the distribution of the functional areas within the city. The palace and government office areas were in the center of the city, around which were a residential area, a tusi graveyard, a religious activity area, a villa and garden area, and so on. The building materials revealed in these areas include bricks, tile-ends and eave tiles. The unearthed porcelain sherds are largely of blue-and-white wares, and their inscriptions contain rich information on the tusi system of Yongshun County. The Laosicheng Site and the structures nearby it were mostly built in the Ming Dynasty. The excavation of the site is very significant to researches on the internal structure of tusi society in Yongshun County, the tusi domination system, and the relationship between the central government and the minorities in the Ming Dynasty.
