摘要
"运河"一词,北宋时著的《新唐书.五行志》已经见及,但古代很少作为专名的地名使用。灌溉运河与农业同时产生,中国早期的运河开发,以东南而论,早在河姆渡和跨湖桥时期就已经开始。先秦时期,亦有多条史书可考的运河。中国运河开发史源远流长,但以"以人为本"为准则来看,历史教训亦深刻。元朝时开发的大运河最后一段——会通河,开通后难以发挥作用,是显著的一例。
The Chinese term ＂yunhe （canal）＂ can be traced to The New Chronicles of the Tang Dynasty. It, however, was never used as a geographical term in ancient times. The canal for irrigation purposes appeared with the rise of agriculture. The development of Chinese canals started in southeast China as early as the Hemudu and Kuahuqiao period. According to the historical resources, there had already existed several canals in the pre-Qin period. Though China has a long history of canal development, the lessons drawn from historical experience are profound. The Huitong River, the last part of the Grand Canal, dug in Yuan Dynasty, is a typical example, which could not function after its completion.
