摘要
1986年在四川广汉三星堆遗址发现了两个器物坑。由于这两个坑出土的遗物极为丰富、独特，也由于这两个坑的出土地点按传统的历史观属于远离文明中心的偏远地区，因此学术界对这两个坑给予了异乎寻常的关注并进行了持续不断的探讨。
Since the discovery of the two object pits at Sanxingdui, Guanghan, scholars have made successive discussions on their date and nature and put forward different explanations. It is necessary to check the researchers'methods in order to examine the reasonability of their views. Consequently, the present paper pays attention mainly to this problem. Meanwhile, the author compares and analyses the two pits and their objects, and on this basis proposes a new hypothesis:the buried objects in the No. 1 pit were possibly used in sacrificial activities of an ancestral temple, whereas those in the No. 2 pit might have came from sacrifices in a god-worshipping temple. The review of studies on the two object pits, the examination of their research methods and the proposal of new views upon comparison and analysis show that constantly seeking for explanations and making-critiques might be an approach to truth. At the same time, they also demonstrate that there is no ultimate explanation in academic research and archaeological issues are always open to further discussion.
